Maybe there was a breakdown in communication somewhere (maybe my e-mails
were not getting through or perhaps my English was not clear enough),
but I'm sure that I explained, with examples, how methods that work well
in a personal repository (that only a single developer commits to) often
are not appropriate for a repository that multiple developers
collaborate in.

stgit is a good example of a tool that I find ideal for personal
repositories, but I would never in a million years use it on a
repository that other people might commit to.

I apologise for misleading you, if you interpreted me differently.
