Should mepo support other "repo flags" (e.g., the `@`)?

[mathomp4]

I just realized that while mepo is really generic, one thing that is "hard-coded" is the @ symbol for the repo:

mepo/src/mepo/component.py

Lines 190 to 202 in 5fe9c3d

	def stylize_local_path(local_path, style):
	repo_flag = "@" # Assumed flag for repos
	local_list = splitall(local_path)
	last_node = local_list[-1]
	last_node_list.append(last_node) # maintain a list of last nodes
	# Decorate ALL last nodes since we can have nested repos
	for item in last_node_list:
	try:
	index = local_list.index(item)
	local_list[index] = decorate_node(item, repo_flag, style)
	except ValueError:
	pass
	return os.path.join(*local_list)

One question is: should we allow this to be specified say in .mepoconfig? That is, if someone out there is determined to use % instead of @ in their components.yaml then bits of mepo at the moment would not work.

This is very minor, but something to think about.

This should be simple to implement - as an entry in the clone section. The main question is if we want to add it as a flag to mepo clone, similar to --partial or --style.

Maybe we can have all these stylistic bits only in .mepoconfig, and not expose them via command line...
