+"""Keep a tree in sync with its "upstream" repository of a different format. 
 
-This script makes it easier to keep the upstream changes merged in
-a branch of a product, storing needed information such as the upstream
-URI and revision in special properties on the branched directory.
+For more documentation, see the README file from the distribution.
 
-Examples::
-
-  # Bootstrap a new taylored project, starting at upstream revision 10
-  $ tailor.py -b -s svn -R http://svn.server/Product -r 10 ~/darcs/MyProduct 
-
-  # Bootstrap a new product, fetching from CVS and storing under SVN: this
-  # will create the directory "~/svnwc/cmfcore"; "~/svnwc" must be already
-  # under SVN.
-  $ tailor.py --source-kind cvs --target-kind svn --bootstrap \
-              --repository :pserver:cvs.zope.org:/cvs-repository \
-              --module CMF/CMFCore ~/svnwc/cmfcore
-  
-  # Showing each command bootstrap a new DARCS repos in "~/darcs/cmftopic"
-  # under which the upstream module will be extracted as "CMFTopic" (ie, the
-  # last component of the module name).
-  $ tailor.py -D -b -R :pserver:anonymous@cvs.zope.org:/cvs-repository/ \
-              -m CMF/CMFTopic ~/darcs/cmftopic
-
