Cloning and not using quilted patch queues does man you can work along in your branch of code as needed. Flush out a change, diff it w/ someone other revision/tip/repository and go to town. Export the changes upstream and it is a bit easier, even push them. I've just not taken the time to fully grok the way Bitbucket and a few others use mq. Too much complexity triggers the trap. -jas
