Which is the _entire_ point of mtn.

DVC definitely adds that, as well as interactive support for propagating
between branches, with conflict resolution.

Yes, but I don't actually have access to do anything with it; waiting on
Ludovic.

The error message is saying it can't connect; that's because the name
you gave it is not a valid IP host name.

Your version of mtn (0.48) does not support URLs; you need to use:

$ mtn --db ~/monotone-dbs/ada-france.db pull --key '' www.ada-france.org \
org.emacs.*

Or upgrade to mtn 1.0.
