It seems to me that the root is on the branch, in the sense that "cvs up -rBRANCH" will yield it (i.e. it's on the branch in the CVS sense, even if not in the RCS sense). However, I can see wanting to ask either question: - For which files has someone actually committed something to the branch? - Which files have branch tag X, i.e. which files will be in my sandbox if I do "cvs update -rX"? So it's hard to argue that either of the two behaviours is "correct" or "a bug"; either one could be what the user's looking for. It's the same difference as that between "cvs log -rX:Y" and "-rX::Y". -- | | /\ |-_|/ > Eric Siegerman, Toronto, Ont.
