Thanks for the news, but in this case it's actually the opposite: we _want_ all the branches. The "only a single branch" thing came from about 5 years ago, when I was 1) on dial-up, 2) didn't trust git, and 3) didn't even trust the numbers that said that downloading all branches was only 10 MB more than downloading a single branch. Unfortunately that's led to a lot of angst and problems by playing silly games to try to avoid my silly concerns from years ago. Hopefully we can put this right by changing lily-git.tcl just as I've changed the CG to tell people (in the advanced git section) to just do git clone. - Graham _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
