That doesn't really help: all it shows you is the automated commit in the 
super project that that hash refers to, it tells you nothing about which 
version the particular sub-libraries are on.  Ah wait... right click and 
"Browse repository" gives you a view of the repro * at that commit*, you can 
then drill down to the library(s) of interest and right click and select 
"Show log" to get the information you need.

OK, that's almost useable.  Now we just need to sort out why Marshall's 
results run on the master branch are showing up for develop?

Thanks, John.
