But really, you don't want changes since 2007. You want changes since the 3.8a release. There are changes since then that were in 2007. I attached a log since 3.8a a few messages back (<http://tigerdyr.wheel.dk/ctwm-archive/2172.html>, attachment link at the bottom). That was just generated by.... grub in shell history... % mtn log --no-merges --no-graph --to t:ctwm-3.8a > ctwm.log That pulls the log, skipping merge revs[0] and not drawing the ASCII-art ancestry graph[1], starting from the tip (e.g., the latest revision; implicit in running log), and running to the rev identified by tag 'ctwm-3.8a'. ("ctwm-3.8a" is a tag that was set on what AFAIK is the revision that was thrown into a tarball and called 3.8a. I didn't bother actually verifying that that's the case, but I'll take Richard's word for it for the purpose of pulling that list). This is why you use a VCS after all 8-} [0] In mtn, this can make sense sometimes (like in this list), since the merge rev doesn't tell you anything about what's changed that wasn't already communicated by the revs merged; it only tells you when things were merged together. This isn't necessarily the same in other DVCSen of course. [1] Purely wasted space for the purpose of building that list after all. -- Matthew Fuller (MF4839) | fulle...@over-yonder.net Systems/Network Administrator | http://www.over-yonder.net/~fullermd/ On the Internet, nobody can hear you scream.
