"Can"? Well, that's complicated. You almost always _won't_, though,
and don't really want to either.
I tend to share archives with friends quite a bit. I certainly share
a CM system with coworkers, so I don't really understand why I wouldn't
want to share an archive in a similar way.
My question is regarding the concept of creating a public mirror of
an archive I do own without losing the ability to commit to that
archive.
The documentation suggests that this is not possible, but that doesn't
seem correct.
Then you don't do it in the manner described earlier. Do it the other
way around, instead.
Ahh, yes, this worked beautifully. Thank you very much.
For some reason I didn't get the subtle difference that ``remote
locally'' and ``local remotely'' really meant, ``mirror someone
else's'' and ``provide a public mirror'' respectively.
I'd recommend the titles of those sections being modified to reflect
more accurately what they do. In my case, I'm making an archive
publicly available, but the archive lives on a WebDAV volume (i.e.
remotely) and I'm writing out the mirror to AFS (i.e. locally). This
was a bit confusing for me.
