If you're going to do that, please do it the consistent (with the other
packages) way: the gnome-2-0 branch (the name is important) should
contain stuff specific for GNOME 2.0.x (with whatever reversions are
deemed necessary). HEAD contains all the bleeding edge stuff (like the
short title changes).  Otherwise gnome-user-docs is operating on a
completely different system to every other GNOME 2 module.
