It's probably possible, but a *really* bad idea imo for a whole number of reasons. > If that doesn't work then what is the mechanics of following and incorporating > another project in ours? Well.... at the risk of stating the obvious, if tidy5 builds as a library (I hope it does) then we build and install their code same as any other library. We document the requirement for whatever version we need and go from there. No need for nesting git repos or anything like that. If we *really need* to fork (why?) then we copy the changes between their code and ours and take on all the pain associated with this, but lets not unless anyone has a good reason why (like my assumption about the librified nature of the code is incorrect). Even then, I'd much rather take on the work of making a libtidy5 and contributing it to the tidy5 project and then proceeding with the library integration.
