Re: cloning postgres-xc

This may not be the best place to ask these questions and you could
have considered using postgres-xc-general mailing list from the
Postgres-XC project site. Anyways, see my comments below.

There is quite a lot overlap. Even though Postgres-XC has changed many

ISTM that's the right way, especially if you're interested in keeping
PG code as well. This way, you will avoid a lot of duplicates and can
also quickly do a "git diff" between files of these two projects. I
find that very convenient at times.
