I was thinking this while go home. I think it is purly my problem :) I'd like to ask you to check minor.mk which will be placed at root dir of my checkout from solenv/inc/minor.mk to get the tag infomation. a. we need to check which tag the testautomation archive comes from. b. on CVS checkout or svn checkout, we can check immdeately c. .svn dir is too large and I don't provide ".svn" data. <-root of the problem d. for OOO300, this is CVS, I leave CVS dir untouched. e. for DEV300, this is SVN, I remove .svn dir. f. so I should include solenv/inc/minor.mk in my checkout. I think - there may be better ideas, of course, I also appriciate for your idea...
