Yes, it's right. 2.11.4 is a *branch*, not a revision (branches have an odd number of components, revisions have an even number of components), so there isn't any revision with that number. Revision 2.11 is the base of the branch (or branch point), subsequent revisions on the branch would be 2.11.4.1, 2.11.4.2, etc. You haven't committed any new revisions on the branch yet, so the base revision is the most recent revision on the branch and that's what you get when you check out the branch. I'll note in passing that it seems from the above that the rel-61302 tag was applied incorrectly -- it was probably intended to be a revision tag like rel-61303, not a branch tag. -Larry Jones It's no fun to play games with a poor sport. -- Calvin _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
