It updates a different workspace.

I tried that, but njs said that its not possible to chdir in monotonerc 
without screwing things up, so I did this part in an external script. 
(AFAIK one needs the lua-fs extension to get something like fs.chdir() 
and I don't know if mtn has this linked.)

Of course _if_ there is a way to incorporate both, then I'm happy to 
patch it - this was just my first bigger experiment with monotonerc at 
all =)
