At the time I played with it, I did not find it very useful. The things under "Gotchas" force a certain workflow which one might easily forget. That lead (in my case) to commits I was not able to publish and in one case a broken repo. It also seemed to do some weird detaching from HEAD that I did not really understand. Since then, I did not have a further look at it. I'm very interested in your feedback, though! If it is just for the "I want to clone all repositories" use-case, mr is the better tool. I'm currently playing around with that for Debian Science. Best regards Manuel
