Yes, all the changes you made and the commits are *entirely* local. That's the beauty of distributed source control systems -- you can work on whatever you want, commit whenever you want, and what you're doing in no way messes up what other people are working on. When you have something stable and ready to share, you create a patch bundle and make that available. Anybody else can then easily merge in your patch bundle. It's really much much different than svn or cvs. -- William --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URLs: http://sage.scipy.org/sage/ and http://modular.math.washington.edu/sage/ -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
