Hi Everyone,
So I am working to learn the ins and out of monticello but the available documentation isn't super detailed. I figured I would look towards some documentation for other DVCSs and see if the general principles could help guide me through Monticello. Hg-init is one of my favorite tutorials, so I thought I would try to work through it using monticello, and mapping as best as I could onto a fairly mainstream DVCS model.
So I have created a package and made some edits and saved them to a local monticello repository on disk. Now I would like to send my changes to some hypothetical "central" repository that me and the rest of the team are working off of. This would be the equivalent of a "push" in mercurial. If I select the "central" repository in the Monticello Browser and click save, it pops up a commit message window and looks like it will be saving a new version of my package into the central repository, even though I haven't made any changes to the package. On the other hand I can also open my local repository and copy the last revision into the central repository.
Which of these is considered the standard way of using Monticello. Or should I be doing something completely different? Is trying to map "hg push" onto Monticello completely wrong-headed? Please let me know and I will keep trying to soldier on.
Thanks for your help, Jeff G.
