We should be allowed to create working copy platforms in Aegir, we need this for development. This could be per-platform, or per-hostmaster.

Try this patch for drush_make to be able to specify the options in the makefile. Seemed better all around - http://drupal.org/node/1206340#comment-4800440

Yes, but not having to change the make file would still be useful, so I think having an option in the front-end would be useful, and not a huge amount of effort, though we would need to pass another bit of data from the front-end to the back-end.

Note that I tried to make hostmaster-install respect --working-copy, but I am not sure it's ever worked.

We should be able to do this in contrib for 1.x I reckon.

Indeed we can:

The aegir_make_working_copy module is not currently working with Aegir via the latest BOA. No extra option appears on the platform node create form.

Edit: The above is incorrect - the option only appears after a make file address is entered. But the module causes problems - the Aegir queue stops processing

@milkmiruku you will need to install it into the same directory as provision, which is why your task is failing I think, because provision is elsewhere, or you're not using 1.x.

Going to get this merged into 6.x-2.x because it's a super nice feature.
