hi Dmitry,
 bingo!  YES, it does:

 now, showing that I am indeed essentially a git newbie,
 WTF is a "graft"?  I don't recall running into the term.
 I shall, of course, immediately start trying to find some
 info blah blah ..., but pointers/explanations would help.
 the goal is to put things into a sane state so any new
 clones are healthy.  there's only one(?) existing clone,
 which may or may not be(? become?) an issue.
cheers!
