This is Bonsai.  See <http://www.mozilla.org/bonsai.html>.


	==========
	DISCLAIMER
	==========

This is not very well packaged code.  It's not packaged at all.  Don't
come here expecting something you plop in a directory, twiddle a few
things, and you're off and using it.  Much work has to be done to get
there.  We'd like to get there, but it wasn't clear when that would be,
and so we decided to let people see it first.

Don't believe for a minute that you can use this stuff without first
understanding most of the code.


	============================
	Configuration files you need
	============================

Lots of configuration files need to be placed in the data subdir.
This is also where bonsai keeps its running state.  These two things
ought to be split into different directories, but that hasn't happened
yet.

Some of these files are:

configdata: 	some TCL source that defines treelist, a list of trees you want
		to track, and treedata, information about each of those trees.
		A sample configdata:

	set treelist {default newlayout}

	set treeinfo(default,module) MozillaSource
	set treeinfo(default,branch) {}
	set treeinfo(default,repository) {/cvsroot}
	set treeinfo(default,description) {Mozilla Source Code}
	set treeinfo(default,shortdesc) {Mozilla}

	set treeinfo(newlayout,module) Raptor
	set treeinfo(newlayout,branch) {}
	set treeinfo(newlayout,repository) {/cvsroot}
	set treeinfo(newlayout,description) {New Layout -- Main Line}
	set treeinfo(newlayout,shortdesc) {New Layout}


hidelist:	A list of regexps that define filenames that we don't want
		to let people see via the bonsai pages.

	=================================
	What's What in the Bonsai sources:
	=================================

This is a rough first pass at cataloging and documenting the Bonsai
sources.  Many hands have been in this code over the years, and it has
accreted wildly.  There is probably quite a lot of dead code in here.
