If pulling Emacs.git also pulls ELPA.git (as it should, since it's within our purview as well), then global search&replace should still affect all the files. I hear your other points, so I'm curious now as to what more people think about this who work on Emacs core: Do you want more modularity with regard ELPA, or does the monolithic model work better for you? -- John Wiegley GPG fingerprint = 4710 CF98 AF9B 327B B80F http://newartisans.com 60E1 46C4 BD1A 7AC1 4BA2
