[Gnu-arch-users] [Hey Tom!] mixing imports and commits

[Aaron Bentley]

Are imports permitted anywhere except when there are no previous 
revisions?

I've been considering cacherevs and import revisions to be equivalent, 
but for my purposes, they're only equivalent if imports can only occur 
when there are no previous revisions.  Since imports represent the 
beginning of a new line of descent, they must not be ignored, while 
cacherevs can always be ignored.

If imports are not permitted after the initial import, a similar effect 
can be achieved by creating a new version, importing, and tagging into 
the existing version.

Thoughts?
