There will be support for aliases, and presumably you'll be able to add a
publisher without having to specify its name, but for now, you have to use
the publisher name the depot wants you to.

The /contrib repo will have a different name than /dev, so you won't need
to choose between the two.

This is all so that you don't end up with multiple copies of /dev and/or
/release in your publisher list and confusing the heck out of your system,
which lots of people have done.

Presumably this will be in the release notes, which haven't been sent out
yet because build 127 isn't yet released officially.
