Thanks for reporting this error, Simon. "export" should have been mentioned
instead of "switch". I've fixed the release notes in r14907. I think the web
site will get updated automatically from the repository, though I'm not sure of
that.

Yes. Issue #2189 dealt with --ignore-externals on 'checkout', 'export',
'update', and 'status'. It should probably also cover 'switch' - can someone
else confirm this?

Issue #2189 has had its summary changed to track just the stickiness aspect -
"--ignore-externals option should be sticky" - but I suggest we change it back
to something like what it was, add 'switch' to be done, and close it when it is
done. We should open another issue for stickiness. Agreed?
