I suppose you could write a loginfo script to do this.  Be careful, though.  The
way the documentation "says" to do this (put the second CVS command in the
background) has a race condition.  What I've done in the past is to have the
loginfo script create temporary symlinks to the archive files I want to act on.
After the second CVS command is done with them, the script'll wipe them out.
Another solution might be to use RCS directly.

Subject:  Re: Version numbers




Ok I didn't explain myself correctly.  Yes I don't care about the internal
number, and yes I would love to see a way for me to maintain my own
versions so I know exactly what's on the web box and what I have in
CVS.  So if I can have my own versioning increased based on what I do when
I check in, that would be great.  Is there a way to do this that I'm not
seeing?


Thanks.
