What's the best way to do this? Should we dump > any previous marks when importing new ones? Uh, well, yes. We shouldn't define :5 if it was in the file that appeared in the stream, but isn't in the file on the command line. Worse, what happens if we do this: echo "option import-marks=/not/found" \ | git fast-import --import-marks=my.marks I want this to work, even though /not/found does not exist, but my.marks does. So that does complicate things... -- Shawn.
