I don't quite agree. Assuming I have boost version N installed on my system (no matter by what means), I may want to test a given library (from whatever branch) against the installed system, not necessarily a working copy of a whole boost tree.
Can you explain why -- as in specific use cases? Especially given the lack of source- and binary- compatibility guarantees.
May be that's precisely what I want to test. :-) Seriously, if I'm working on a boost library, I may want to test against different versions of boost (requisite libs). And, if some of those are already installed, why should I have to pull out an old branch from the repository just to regenerate them ? Thanks, Stefan -- ...ich hab' noch einen Koffer in Berlin...
