make dev-install in my work directory libo_20110825/ seems to have changed the result in work directory libo/ too. > > You can find that id in the install set in program/setuprc so > > > grep buildid install/program/setuprc > should match the output of > > ./g -s log -n 1 --pretty=format:%h- > if there was no intervening pull > Well, my confusion started after I tried to follow the instructions "How to Build LibreOffice" > "Multiple Work Dirs" <http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/How_to_build#Multiple_Work_Dirs>. The branch argument to git-new-workdir is optional, and I omitted it. Maybe I fat-fingered something else. Or maybe my expectation was wrong. Anyway, I was surprised to find that `git pull` in the new work dir changed the result of `git branch --verbose` in the previous work directory. Meanwhile, Regina Henschel has told me a couple of ways I can make it clear to myself just which soffice I am running.
