s/branch/repository/ - every repository is essentially a vendor branch that
works.
bk clone -r<rev> reproduces the tree as of that rev.
bk -r grep is very useful.
Tracking external sources is fairly obvious, and BK excels at it, and
virtually 100% of our users have figured out how to do it without asking
us questions.
All of your issues are actually in the docs and well documented. And if
you had asked us how to do it, we would have pointed you at the docs or
fixed them if they were incomplete. I'm at a loss as to why you want to
prove to the entire lkml that you can't/won't read the docs, but hey,
if that's your bag go for it. I'm willing to answer your questions as
they come up, so keep 'em coming. It just helps educate the general
list, though I suspect they may get a bit tired of it because most people
do read the docs and are more interested in the harder problems. So
maybe we should take this offline?
