Starting a new ancestry from an MC package

Can I save a MC package without its ancestor info? I made changes to a package, but the new and old packages are not logically related. I would like the new package to appear as the first in its ancestry.

Thanks.

Although you didn't ask for how to do this, I'll try to give an answer ;)

In the MC browser select the package in the left pane and in the context menu select "delete working copy". Then create a new package (with the button "+Package") and save it to your repository. The new version should not know about the previous one.

HTH,
Adrian

Ha, ha. When I wrote that, I thought, "I wonder if someone is going to respond with 'yes|no'."
