Always good to know that I am not doing something completely idiotic ;)

Yes, this is my issue really. Because though I liek to think I have one 
place which builds the system and rsyncs it out, in practice here are 
three of them, and each of them can push to the otjers. Which one I use 
rather depoends where I am, and what I am doing - which is a problem 
which has become more acute in the current world!

What I have decided to do is keep the.git on all fo them, but not rsycn 
it, and to 'git pull' at the same time in each place - a 'it status' 
will show me if any files are actually different after the rsync.

Should work fine I think.

thanks,

-pete.
