This PLUGIN also supports "Copy On Write", a.k.a. "COW". Thus a Github
library defined in either
the
fp-lib-table (project or global) will take an
library defined in either fp-lib-table (project or global) will take an
optional option called <b>allow_pretty_writing_to_this_dir</b>. This option
is essentially the "Library Path" for a local Kicad (pretty) library which is
combined to make up the Github library found in the same fp-lib-table row. If
the option is missing, then the Github library is read only as always. If the
option is present for a Github library, then any writes to this library will
go to the local *.pretty directory. Note that the github.com resident portion
of this hybrid COW library is always read only, meaning you cannot delete
anything or modify any footprint at github directly.

consists of a local R/W portion and a remote R/O portion.
