\r
70 After a conversation with David last year about bug-tracking, I worked
\r
71 up a rough python-based prototype of this. It worked in terms of
\r
72 namespaces, so Carl could associate the namespace "public" with a list
\r
73 of tags he publishes to a http-accessable location. And you could
\r
74 associate the namespace "cworth" with those same tags.
\r
76 He types `whatevercommand push public` and all tags "public.*" go to an
\r
77 config-associated URL.
\r
79 You type `whatevercommand pull cworth` and the tags come down from that
\r
82 So what he has as "public.to-push" comes down to your notmuch as
\r
85 It's available here:
\r
87 http://commonmeasure.org/~jkr/git/nm-remote.git
\r
89 See these emails for more (but note that the repo url has changed to the
\r
92 id:"m1k4rkkchy.fsf@watt.gilman.jhu.edu"
\r
93 id:"m1hbmokbxj.fsf@watt.gilman.jhu.edu"
\r
95 There were some details and inherent ambiguities about conflict
\r
96 resolution, and the above emails explain how I dealt with them.
\r
98 Note also that it uses python's configparser, which will overwrite your
\r
99 config -- which means it'll get rid of your comments. So if you use any
\r
100 of the config-writing commands, make sure you back up your config first.
