        Hmmm... True, it doesn't. Do I have to cacherev
address@hidden/zzbot--devel--0.1, is that it? Shouldn't
archive-mirror do that for me?

        I noticed that, I'll probably keep it somewhere. But, again,
shouldn't cacherev include the detailed history for the projects in
question? Perhaps via a command-line option? Sometimes you just have to
erase an archive (say, you'll have to format the machine, or you find out
you made a mess out of it, or your hard drive crashes and you simply lose it
all)...

        Thanks a lot,
