Replicated repos have a delay compared to when you made changes in your private repo, that is ok, replication is not what makes commit order inconsistent with time, it's the act of pulling/merging from a server with misconfigured time and gitweb.cgi trusting "creation time", right? Or is replication the same thing as merging/pulling? -Matt __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
