checkout from IPNS

[cryptix]

I want to enable cloning repositories from IPNS, setting upstream to the IPFS hash present at clone.

@whyrusleeping I can't get this to work.

L65 blocks indefinitely and L66 gives me failed to find any peer in table.

Any Idea how I could test this without relying on a remote node?

20:01 <@whyrusleeping> yeah... we need an 'ipfs name publish --local' or something
20:01 <@whyrusleeping> or maybe just make the dht put not fail on no peers?
20:01 <@whyrusleeping> idk
20:04 <+cryptix> for the latter, the re-publisher ticker would still run, no?
20:05 <+cryptix> i imagine you'd also want this for a case where you are alone on a network and peers appear latter
20:07 <@whyrusleeping> yeah, the republisher ticker still runs no matter what
