Package: mr
Version: 1.02
Severity: wishlist

Hi,
I'm using mr to keep updated my tons of debian packages checkouts (python
modules & apps repos) along with several upstream project and other packaging.
When I run:

  $ mr -j10 -d ~ update

sometimes the process goes on until it stops, and it keeps waiting there for a
long time (after a while of waiting I killed it). I'm prepending 'timeout 2h' to
the command above, but having a -t/--timeout <secs> option to mr that allow for
a sub-process to be there waiting for at max <secs> time would be extra nice.

Thanks for considering,
Sandro
