Re: fsck --full is Ok, but clones are not, "missing commits"?!

Brandon Casey [off-list ref] justifiably complains:
p.s. It's more polite to keep the people you are responding
     to in the cc list.  Take a look at how Hannes did it
     (the email to which this one is replying).  Usually
     it's enough to select 'Reply All'.
Brandon et al.,

 oops!  sorry, my bad.  apologies.  I'm well aware of
 this point.  if you look at my _other_ replies, you
 should see that they are Ok.

 the problem is the MTA at work insists on adding HTML
 "if you read this you are a criminal" b*s* attachments
 (at least 3 bads!).  the posts are (rightly) binned by
 majordomo.  so I've been posting from my gmail account
 (mostly), which is not intended for my work.  that's
 my private life, @&*%$(^!   so the posts go to my work
 account, and hence I must manually transfer data such
 as the CC's:

	list/cc ---> work --(fwd/reply, no cc)--> \
	   gmail --(compose reply, add cc)--> list+cc

 this is also why the threading is (probably) broken,
 and may be the reason for the "Re: Re: ..." nonsense
 (albeit I'm not sure just how that happens?), and/or
 sometimes replying to the "wrong" e-address.   ;-(

 I simply forgot.  sorry!  (this reply's from home,
 so I don't have at-hand the data you asked for.
 tomorrow.)  and yes, I know this reply is OT & long.

cheers!
