Re: WC questions

Unfortunately, I haven't started to examine these aspects of the WC.
My efforts have focused around the management of the pristine files,
and the read/write access of them. The whole "scheduling" stuff is
pretty archaic and very touchy. I totally believe there are different
pieces of code with different interpretations :-(

Hmm. Maybe we set copied on all the children, but do not generate a
copyfrom_url? Haven't done the research to know.

The schedule state always represents the WORKING version. "normal"
means it matches BASE -- that it has no (structural) changes pending.

No idea. The state change stuff here doesn't make a lot of sense to
me. It would be more obvious if the change was described explicitly as
intent, rather than implied by from/to states (which could get revised
anyways!).

Always WORKING.

Hunh? I don't understand the question. (not that I really know that
field anyways :-P )
