Linus tla has an interesting implementation (and horrible name) for something like this. In Arch-speak, they are called 'configurations', a versioned control file that describes that in subdirectory foo we import from this other repo#branch. In cvs, you just do nested checkouts, and trust a `cvs update` done at the top will do the right thing; and in fact recent cvs versions do. After using cvs and arch for a while, my opinion is that all this stuff is _bad_, and you want a makefile that pulls the projects together when you build them. Different projects are going to use different SCMs anyway, and you'll have to live with how to tag a release across repositories/scms, and I haven't seen any answer I like. cheers, martin - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
