Still thinking about this, and I think we [ooo-builders ;-)] could live with 
the ugliest of the ugly way of doing this:  When you have a topgit branch 
t/b1, and would like to undepend it, just

- tg patch t/b1 > save.diff
- commit a reverse of save.diff to t/b1
- tg update everything
- remove t/b1 from all the .topdeps
- commit save.diff to t/b1 again ;-)

Yeah, it creates 2 more commits in t/b1, but that's bearable I think [we do 
disable patches, but not every day ;-)], you still have the history, and you 
are able to add the dependency later again.

What do you think, please?

Regards,
Jan
