</div></div>OK, thanks :)<br>
I was concerned as I thought Eliot’s patching acted directly<br>
on the snapshot.bin. Silly me.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>That would be hairy :-). Instead it is essentially a package commit. A snapshot is created, modified and then committed. So it gets its own distinct UUID, version number and time stamp. And of course now it gets a branched package name. So these packages can safely coexist with their originals on trunk. The only bug right now is that new methods end up uncategorized and that causes a few tests to fail. Frank's CI server may encourage me to fix this soon ;-).</div>
