I tried using it on 0.40 (which seems to be themonotne I'm using on Debian lenny) in order to obtain a more up-to-date repository, and it didn't work. Could it be that the wiki is still out of date even though you've checked in an update? Of course I'll be downloading the 0.99 executable to get things working instead of sticking stubbornly with lenny's 0.40, but I thought I should report this. On http://wiki.monotone.ca/SelfHostingInfo/ it says: $ # Command for monotone <=0.48 $ mtn --db=mtn.db clone mtn://monotone.ca/monotone "?net.venge.monotone*" \ -b net.venge.monotone monotone but when I try this I get: hend...@april:~/dv/mtn$ mtn --db=mtn.db clone mtn://monotone.ca/monotone "?net.venge.monotone*" -b net.venge.monotone monotone Usage: mtn [OPTION...] command [ARG...] --confdir <arg> set location of configuration directory --db [ -d ] <arg> set name of database --debug print debug log to stderr while running --dump <arg> file to dump debugging log to, on failure --help [ -h ] display help message --ignore-suspend-certs do not ignore revisions marked as suspended --key [ -k ] <arg> set key for signatures --keydir <arg> set location of key store --log <arg> file to write the log to --no-default-confdir forbid use of the default confdir --norc do not load ~/.monotone/monotonerc or _MTN/monotonerc lua files --nostd do not load standard lua hooks --quiet suppress verbose, informational and progress messages --rcfile <arg> load extra rc file --reallyquiet suppress warning, verbose, informational and progress messages --root <arg> limit search for workspace to specified root --ssh-sign <arg> controls use of ssh-agent. valid arguments are: 'yes' to use ssh-agent to make signatures if possible, 'no' to force use of monotone's internal code, 'only' to force use of ssh-agent, 'check' to sign with both and compare --ticker <arg> set ticker style (count|dot|none) --version print version number, then exit --xargs [ -@ ] <arg> insert command line arguments taken from the given file Options specific to 'mtn clone': --branch [ -b ] <arg> select branch cert for operation --revision [ -r ] <arg> select revision id for operation Syntax specific to 'mtn clone': clone ADDRESS[:PORTNUMBER] [DIRECTORY] Description for 'mtn clone': Checks out a revision from a remote database into a directory.
