Thanks for that suggestion; I already thought of this one; but this is not always easy to do; consider a situation when you have a central repository like, say, on Bitbucket (when it is occasionally online *g*); I cannot clone the Bitbucket (or Sourceforge...) repository, delete it and redo it; can I?
