Hi Jonathan,

Thanks for your quick, informative response. This is the information I was hoping to get - how the tool is used by its primary audience. It's going to take me a while to fully absorb it, but I suspect (as Avery points out in his reply) that this type of workflow is less workable when there are fewer reviewers and more patches, most of which are accepted as-is.

Nevertheless, I want to make sure that we keep in mind the way the tool is meant to be used when choosing our new workflow, rather than trying to force it into a mold inspired by svn. It would probably do us no harm to be forced to have fewer, more well considered patches.

Cheers, Brock
