Change "repo.replicate" to "repo.connect"? #20

Closed canadaduane closed 4 years ago

canadaduane commented 5 years ago

I find the terminology "replicate" a tad confusing when called like this:

repo.replicate(swarm);

At first blush, my interpretation was that the repository I had created would make multiple copies of a swarm.

I wonder if repo.connect(swarm) might be clearer?

This is not great terminology, but it's hoisted from dat-land projects.
