When I tried "local cloning", I first tried to make an empty archive with cgi-init, but it dumped me into an editor. I couldn't find a switch to turn that off. Perhaps the manpage should say "you'll be dumped in to an editor", and perhaps provide a way to pass that message with "-m".

So, on a whim, I realize that it's performing an initial commit, so I try cg-init -I. And here's the result:

    localhost:~/Projects/Git % cg-init -I my_master
    defaulting to local storage area
    localhost:~/Projects/Git % cg-clone my_master my_slave
    defaulting to local storage area
    find: /Users/merlyn/Projects/Git/my_master: No such file or directory
    Hard links don't work - using copy
    Fetching head...
    cp: illegal option -- b
    usage: cp [-R [-H | -L | -P]] [-f | -i | -n] [-pv] src target
           cp [-R [-H | -L | -P]] [-f | -i | -n] [-pv] src1 ... srcN directory
    cg-fetch: unable to get the HEAD branch
    cg-clone: fetch failed

So, I guess your answer is no. What is "-b" for cp. That's not on my manpage.

And, after reading the manpage closer, I see my first "my_master" was created wrong. But no error message. :( So, repeating this using a subdirectory...

    localhost:~/Projects/Git % rm -rf .git 
    localhost:~/Projects/Git % mkdir my_master
    localhost:~/Projects/Git % cd my_master
    localhost:..ects/Git/my_master % cg-init -I
    defaulting to local storage area
    localhost:..ects/Git/my_master % cd ..
    localhost:~/Projects/Git % cg-clone my_master my_slave
    defaulting to local storage area
    Hard links don't work - using copy
    Fetching head...
    cp: illegal option -- b
    usage: cp [-R [-H | -L | -P]] [-f | -i | -n] [-pv] src target
           cp [-R [-H | -L | -P]] [-f | -i | -n] [-pv] src1 ... srcN directory
    cg-fetch: unable to get the HEAD branch
    cg-clone: fetch failed

Again, lots of "no" answers there.
