Thanks for setting the repo to track this.

| Starting from a git working tree as described in
|  http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/GitMirror
| you can set up to use the constexpr repository as follows:
| 
| # git remote add cx git://repo.or.cz/official-gcc/constexpr.git
| # git remote set-url --push cx
| ssh://repo.or.cz/srv/git/official-gcc/constexpr.git
| # git config remote.cx.push constexpr:$MYNAME
| # git checkout -b constexpr cx/master
| 
| Of course, to push you'll need to create a repo.or.cz account and add
| yourself to the list of users.

OK.

| 
| To update from changes in the master branch, just 'git pull'.  To
| bring in changes from my branch as well, use 'git pull cx jason'.  To
| publish your changes to the $MYNAME branch, use 'git push'.  To update
| the master branch, use 'git push cx HEAD:master' (or some other
| refspec instead of HEAD).
| 
| Does this seem useful?

Yes, it does.  Many thanks.

| Do you have any local changes since the last patch you sent me?

Yes, I'll send them to the list as well as pushing into the repo.
Does that sound right, or is that unnecessary noise -- as a general
question about how we handle changes to the repo?

Again, thanks!
