Point taken. Still, you haven't taken away my worry about "conflict propagation": what if a couple of conflicting modules block the newest versions of 20 (or more!) other modules?
Is that somehow not possible? Am I missing something?
If that happens in subversion, we have the same problem. Perhaps a larger one since merging to release is such a mess.
My understanding was that switching to a decentralized control source would allow you, among other things, to just pick only the last stable versions (stable with other stables versions) from libraries to setup a new version of boost, which is how decentralized work works both in branches and with pull requests.
