Hi Ben,
I’ve sold this problem by moving to Git instead. This was on my list for a while now anyway, so the time was perfect.

Please see inline responses below in case it helps others (hopefully your email client handles them properly).

It made no obvious distinction between the dev and user lists. Suggest updating
