Um. I mean that I've read the manual, but my developers, whose only purpose is to sit and code Java more slowly than I could COBOL (note that I don't *know* COBOL), who I have using CVS because it saves me a lot of grief when they do something dumb and I can come up with the previous version, won't use -ko reliably. (I guess, "unless I force them to by way of editing their dot files for them." And I suppose I shouldn't have that silly code of ethics about not mucking about with users' files, right?) I do hope you were being at least a little funny in the above on purpose, Greg... you're not really *that* detached from the real world, are you? > That's why you _REALLY_ want your vendor to create releases that no > longer contain recognisable (to RCS/CVS) keywords (or minimally to > _ONLY_ use keywords that common pulic versions of RCS/CVS don't > recognise). Accepted. Remember that I'm saying all this as Devil's Advocate. (I don't have this problem myself. Mostly because the previous sysadmin at my place of work so screwed up the CVS server set-up as to make the developers refuse to use it, a situation I have yet to rectify.) -- gabriel rosenkoetter [EMAIL PROTECTED]
