Subject: Retrospectively add alternates to a repository?
Date: Fri, 26 Feb 2010 23:54:07 +0000 (UTC)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <loom.20100227T004822-959@post.gmane.org> (raw)

Hi,

I have a local mirror of a remote repository (to save time
cloning over a slow network).  But before I created the
local mirror I already cloned the remote repo directly.

Is it possible to retrospectively add an alternates spec
to this local repository (the equivalent of doing what 
--reference does during the clone)?

Thanks for any help.

Regards,
Steve
