I've checked out tailor a while ago, and it seems a quite capable tool. Even bounced a few emails with the author, because I thought that we could perhaps deprecate our imports scripts. It _is_ good, and seems to have a cool community around it.

The short of it is that tailor won't do branches. So for trivial single-line-of-development projects, you're fine with it, probably even happier than with our import scripts. Sadly, none of the projects I've worked in the last 6 years fall into that category ;-)

cheers,
martin
