It's a bit silly to have to spec both -d and -f to see what dim would
all complain about. And dry-run should never cause bad side-effects.

Ack.

We don't do dry-run all that well in general, partly because you need to
have one part actually succeed to make the rest succeed. And some things
don't do dry-run at all. Those could bail out with an error right
away. To the endless todo list...

BR,
Jani.

Yeah, one of the biggest things I'd like to see is dim push-branch not
pushing until the dry-run (and entirely offline) rebuild-tip
succeeded. I think otherwise we're fairly good with dry-runs ...
