I was just thinking that last night.  This technique might
be an easy way of exporting and importing tree fragments to/from
CVS / Subversion / etc.  So, I take the first half of that

Of course, the

    mv {arch}/*/*/*/*/*/patch-* tmp-msg

line in tla-lineage-replay needs to be fixed before it's
used for anything but the most trivial merge.  :)
