[Axiom-developer] Patch for clef & detailed procedure to make it using GNU Arch

[David MENTRE]

Hello Tim,

As requested, here is the patch to make clef work as an Arch
changeset. Please find below how I made it. I hope it is clear. If you
have questions, do not hesitate to ask.


BTW, I have made a mirror of my own Arch archive on the web:

 address@hidden  http://www.linux-france.org/~dmentre/arch-ive/

The below changeset is available in this archive (as "axiom--clef--1").
So, if you want, you can try to get my patch from there and try to play
with "tla star-merge".



In below explanation, following prefixes are used:
 ###: for my comments

 $: shell commands I typed

 [ ]: my comments on tla output or things to do

 the rest: tla output



  Using tla to make a local changset of a remote tree
