[petsc-dev] Ghost values in sieve

[Chris Eldred]

I was wondering how ghost values were handled when creating a
distributed (global) vector from a specific PetscSection over a
DMComplex object- ie what defines the stencils used to figure out
which values need to be ghosted? What about local vs. global indexes?
