Need to document the following in the HTML/PDF documentation:

  --depth <arg>            limit the number of levels of 
directories to descend
  --exclude <arg>          leave out anything described by its 
argument
  --revision [ -r ] <arg>  select revision id for operation


Cheers,

Tony.

--exclude is also not documented for the *mtn commit* command and 
others. An overview for all parameters would be fine.

The current documentation file is to big with about 600 kByte. I 
propose to put at least all *mtn automate* documentation in a 
specific file. Also the discussion about the hash based security of 
the system itself is not worth to be part of the main docs. This 
counts even for the part dealing with the mark-merge alogrithm.
