Your presumption is again false: your point was that my logic was
confused, that the entire dependency scheme I sketched out was
"stupid", and you and another expended considerable effort to show how
stupid this was, which now is clearly wrong --- my explanation and
example wasn't stupid after all.  I was merely trying to convey WHAT I
wanted to have happen, and HOW, logically speaking, it could.  What I
got from you and one other ON THIS PART was that my logic was STUPID,
IDIOTIC, etc., though to their credit, several others merely chimed in
with their opinion and helped the discussion along by presenting
argument, example, and not invective and mere assertion that my
logic was very much beneath contempt.

I saw and appreciated your earlier explanation, and will be trying to
work with it, and those the others suggested.  My guess is that it
will not be as buttery-smooth as I would have hoped, but it will
probably do well enough.

Your petulance and quick temper to dismiss someone as stupid merely
because he pursues a line of discussion that you yourself admittedly
confuse, not to mention your name-calling --- both explicit and veiled
--- really is not helpful, though your suggestions on how to use git
better certainly are, and I do very much appreciate them here, and
elsewhere.
