nice... now the real kicker if I merge from another branch sunrise/reviewed and redirect it's package.mask to package.mask/sunrise will git be smart enough to differentiate from the gentoo.org one and the sunrise one? I think even more important is how would I even tell it to do that once I've moved the first one.
