[Monotone-devel] Dubious about change in 2854b6edefcd357aca6d3eb6c70b8707523b5cc2

[Richard Levitte - VMS Whacker]

Hi,

I'm a little dubious about the change in revision
2854b6edefcd357aca6d3eb6c70b8707523b5cc2.

If, for example, I would have read access to foo.abc and foo.def but
not foo.ghi and did the following:

  monotone pull {server} foo*

would it mean that I would only get an error and nothing more?

I would expect to get the branches foo.abc and foo.def but not
foo.ghi.  To be very precise, I expect to get all revisions in those
two branches with all their associated certs, plus all remaining
ancestors without any branch certs.  If the above change means I get
nothing at all, I find that a very disappointing experience.

Am I correct in my understanding of what that change does, or am I
missing a clue?

Cheers,
Richard
