Hi folks,

I've been using the latest Cogito. When I seek back and forth in a git repo, directories I've created tend to persist backward in time, cluttering up earlier versions.

By the discussions on this list, I'm pretty sure there's a way to stop this, but I don't know clearly what it is, and I'm worried about trying things that might corrupt my repository. Could someone spell it out for me please?

Be well, Zack
