Hello Uwe,

This is a little beyond my comprehension :( However, this is also why I am limiting myself to

  - a single level of dependencies in tg, (master -->
    multiple t/something --> t/all), and

  - no changes of its own in t/all

When any of the t/something graduates to master, t/all will be blown away (safe, since it has no changes of its own) and a new t/all created with the new set of dependencies.

I'm pretty sure this will work -- you could say I'm using tg to automate the "throw-away merge" work flow.

Thanks,

Sitaram
