I'm getting (more?) confused now. I thought that the approach Andrew brought up of the svn copy, followed by modifying the beta bit in that branch would leave a svn history with a unique svn revision number. I was assuming the flip the bit was committed back to the branch. Or is a copy not a branch? Dan.
