You're missing the point of CVS. It tries very hard to _keep_ your changes _and_ incorporate the changes from the central archive. This is really good; I've got local patches that have been in my tree for over a year. If you want to know what local changes are being tracked for you by CVS type "cvs diff" ... if you don't want any of them, just delete the file and then "cvs update" will get you a fresh copy. _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
