Re: libreoffice merge(tool?) issue #3 ... (bogus)

Hi Brian,

	First - it seems that the issue here was entirely bogus, not least
because we had a bug with re-writing these makefiles as we checked them
in; so hopefully only 2 issues pending ;-)

	Anyhow - I tried your kind advice:

FYI: `git clone foo bar` will use hard-links to copy the object
files and is both very fast and space efficient.  (See the
description of `--local` in git-clone(1), which is used by
default for local repositories since git 1.5.3.)  It's also
guaranteed to work while the correctness of `cp -lR` depends
on implementation details of git.

	Sounds like just what I need. Unfortunately, it didn't clone some of
the pieces I needed; eg. other configured remotes, I ended up with just
'origin' - which was unexpected (and less wonderful than cp -lR ;-).

	Is that a feature ?

	Thanks,

		Michael.
