Please find attached my CVS patch for preserving editor flag upon multiple checkouts.
The issue is : development projects frequently have developers working on more than 1 branch at the same time. For instance, they may be working on forthcoming development work, in addition to fixing live support issues. The current code will overwrite a users edit flag if they check out the source code again. There is a comment in update.c that suggests it would be better to do this instead of by user, by work area; which makes more sense. When I get a spare couple of days, I will code / implement this feature as it will be very useful. This patch adds a new ./configure option called --enable-keep-editing which will preserve a users edit upon checkout.
