-* repo deletions
-
-  Handling repo deletions might also be possible, but is tricky, since
-  there's no good way to tell if a local checkout of a given repo is clean
-  and really should be deleted. Probably better for mr to just warn that a
-  repo still exists on disk that it is no longer managed.

-* mr register
+  (How to support multple renames of a single repo? List multiple
+  renamedfrom dirs?)

 
 

-  Idea is you check out a repo and then use mr register to add it to the
-  closest mrconfig file.
+* a way to detect repos in a tree that are not registered, and warn
+  about or even auto-register them. (svn externals make this quite
+  difficult!)

 
 

-  mr register would be implemented as a shell command that then calls
-  mr config with flags that make it actually edit the mrconfig file:
+* When there are chained mrconfig files, mr could be smarter about
+  checkouts and updates. Ie, when a new version of an mrconfig file is
+  checked out or updated, throw all the info from the old one away, and
+  process the new one.

 
 

-  if [ -d "$MR_REPO/.svn" ]; then
-       url=$(svn info "$MR_REPO" | grep -i ^URL: | cut -d ' ' -f 2)
-       if [ -z "$url" ]; then
-               error "cannot determine svn url"
-       fi
-       mr -c "$MR_CONFIG" config --add "$MR_REPO" --checkout="svn co $URL"
-  fi
+  Until this is fixed, checkouts and updates need to be manually repeated
+  after mrconfig files have changes.
