You should treat the revision numbers as purely internal designations, that you would write down only to find a given revision. Trying to keep revision numbers in parallel on several files is frustrating and futile, given that CVS doesn't associate revision numbers with more than one file. Any revisions that you want to assign meaning to should be given tags instead. If you want to do some work in parallel, or off to one side, you should use branch tags. These do work very well on multiple files. -- Now building a CVS reference site at http://www.thornleyware.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
