10:38 < obra> I'd think about something like ~/.sd_current_replica as a symlink 13:11 < mst> the problem with ~/.sd_current_replica 13:11 < mst> is that then that'll affect every shell 13:11 < mst> which is basically shit 13:12 < mst> probably the correct approach here is to have a file name in an env var 13:12 < mst> then people who want it global to that user+host set SD_REPO_FILE=~/.sd_current_replica 13:13 < mst> andx people who want it local to a shell set it to ~/.sd_current_replica_${pid} or whatever

For switching within sd shell: 10:09 < obra> so, what determines what replica you're working with is SD_REPO 10:10 < obra> other stuff gets pulled from that at startup 10:11 < obra> i worry about cleaning out everything at runtime 10:11 < obra> the cleanest way to do it is to set SD_REPO and then reexec sd 10:02 < obra> we could make it transparent if we could keep history for the shell across runs 10:02 < obra> which i think is a bug, not "unwritten"

git sd basically obsoletes this
