  - in dopush (?), we need to sort out synthetic fast forard
     this should not depend entirely on quilt mode
     but will always be needed if quiltmode_splitbrain

-       elsewhere ?

+    On push with split brain, do synthetic fast forward if as follows:
+       - find previous push (archive version, import, whatever
+          is result of fetch into the dgit remote tracking branch)
+       - find its version number
+       - find the tag we fetched during git_fetch_us in lrfetchrefs_f
+           [*] this may need us to arrange to fetch it
+           that is, find the DEP-14 tag
+       - find the corresponding dgit tag
+       - the dgit tag should be a descendant of the DEP-14 tag
+       - what we are pushing should be a descendant of the DEP-14 tag
+       - then we can make it also a descendant of the dgit tag
+          (make it: in dgit view only, in split brain mode)
+
+    We want a --overwrite=VERSION option which 1. adjusts
+    the version used above, and 2. does the same thing in any
+    quilt mode.  If no split brain it should make the psuedomerge
+    on the user's HEAD.
