There are plusses and minuses to both approaches and I don't have any strong preference for one over the other as the ultimate solution to the problem. My goal is just to get *some* fix for this serious oversight implemented as soon as possible and directory-at-a-time locking should be significantly simpler than whole tree. -Larry Jones I must have been delirious from having so much fun. -- Calvin _______________________________________________ Bug-cvs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-cvs
