I wanted to add "--without-mask" to REPOMAN_DEFAULT_OPTS in my make.conf for it being used by repoman full, but noticed that, when it's passed, repoman commit dies. I think the option should simply be skipped Thanks
This is fixed in git: http://git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/?p=proj/portage.git;a=commit;h=c9a73d5f8d52803a703e8827c42ab3274ad3ec84
This is fixed in 2.1.13 and 2.2.0_alpha189.
