I received some feedback from the revision libraries. In case somebody did
not notice it, the last command was incorrect. It produced the following
error message:
gaijin % tla library-config --greedy --sparse
usage: tla library-config [options] library-dir
try library-config --help
It should have been obvious what was missing. The correct command was:
tla library-config --greedy --sparse ~/.tla-rev-lib
Now, the contents of the revision library should as follows:
gaijin % cd ~/.tla-rev-lib/
gaijin % ls
=greedy =sparse hipl@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
