Because in the second mkdir, the slave's idea of HEAD is behind master's and user's idea of HEAD.

I agree it would be nice if this worked, but given that we have to remain sane to people who open an RA session to the slave before it has synced up I'm afraid it might be tricky to address. (That corresponds to the case of concurrent commits --- two people attempting Mark's two mkdirs concurrently.)

Separately: we might want to teach the wc that one repos_url (out of several with the same repos_uuid) is preferred in given circumstances... then we could have '^mirror/' and '^master/' syntaxes. </random-thoughts>
