ChangeTorsion

ChangeTorsion[expr,covd1, covd2] changes the torsion tensor of covd1 by the torsion tensor of covd2 using the antisymmetric part of the Christoffel relating covd1 and covd2. The second argument is listable.
ChangeTorsion[expr,covd1] is converted into ChangeTorsion[expr,covd1, PD].
ChangeTorsion[expr] is converted into ChangeTorsion[expr,$CovDs].
