Is this _really_ worth fixing or can it wait until

pristine trees just "go away"?



It's not really as simple as "always follow update by

adding the appropriate pristine" -- if you're updating

from some "other" branch, probably you don't want the

pristine, for example.

Summary:  update and pristine trees

Original Submission:  From: "Robert Anderson" <address@hidden>









Can someone remind me why update does not add the pristine tree

of the revision you just updated to?  This is what larch did,

correct?
