I use replica for several tasks besides usual system update, in
several different ways.
It (applylog) behaves very reliably when changes go to a tree hosted
by a native plan9 fs (fossil in my case), yet many glitches may arise
(like those reported by Paul) if the destination is a *nix tree over
9P
OK, just checked, and my vx32 repo at bitbucket.org has the cld
patch. I guess yiyus committed it?

The option -s for replica could help you with that. I have used
replica from 9vx and it works (yes, a lot of warnings, but it works).
However, what I usually do is to keep a sysfromiso hg
Hi, I just did a fresh pull for my sysfromiso tree from bitbucket, mk
nuke etc. and it built fine.
It's a lot of fun to look at, e.g.,
http://bitbucket.org/rminnich/sysfromiso/changeset/147b5c83d6f4
and see all the good stuff still being done on this kernel :-)

I would argue that, while it is quite cool in principle, replica is
the wrong way to solve the source distribution problem. I gave up on
replica a year ago because I got tired of the kinds of problems you're
having.

FWIW, Ron's got a regularly updated snapshot of the source tree in
mercurial -- he and I have been using that to keep our 9vx plan 9
directories up to date -- works faster, better, and is more reliable
than replica. Using floren's python installation you can even use it
under Plan 9.

I want to build a kw kernel, which caused me to want to update my 9vx
installation.
Have my file system on a case-sensitive remote mounted drive.
I'm getting essentially every file tagged as "locally modified; will not
update".
When a file is good, I get a warning that I can't set the uid; I can
