I was originally trying to do this with the version of monotone in
debian 3.1 (sarge), which is rather old, and afaik didn't have
attr_init_functions. I will try to try out using attr_init_functions
soon(ish).

Doing an update of the attributes for /etc, /boot, /root,
and /home/sysadmin for a minimal install of debian (console only, and
only 'base' at that) takes at least twenty minutes on an AMD-K6-2-500
with fast disks and 256 MiB RAM, and even longer on a 604e/160 PowerPC
with 96 MiB RAM.
Doing an mtn commit or mtn add on the other hand only takes a few
minutes.
Cheers,
Daniel
