Use the older syntax for exception variables; older versions
of python (like 2.4, which is installed on boss and ops right
now), don't support the 'Except X as (Y,Z)' syntax.

to incorporate them with newnode. If that all works, update the

After reboot, they will be attached to the inner elab.

deleted, they still remain in the user table with a status of
"archived", but since all the queries in the system now use uid_idx

has taken.

There is no way to ressurect a user, but it would not be hard to add.

Refs can contain slashes.  For example, the short ref for
'refs/heads/foo/bar' is 'foo/bar'.  Previously, we just chopped off

Call git-rev-parse to shorten the ref for us.  In case it doesn't return
anything (which shouldn't happen), fall back to the full ref.
