I'm getting a bit confused. Do you mean pull_cmd calls read_repo which
in turn calls your function that makes a
NamedP ... [] (join_patches ...)?

If so then I think I'd misunderstood exactly what you wre doing; you
might just be suffering from pull not being made properly lazy yet, e.g.
it should probably be using lazily_read_repo (although I'll have to
think about what does and should happen when the repo is remote). I
don't suppose you could use get for now instead?
