Wouldn't it just be easier to look at the "sticky tags" field of the status report? Or am I missing something here? Now I remeber why I was not looking at the sticky tag field: it doesn't necessarily contain the *branch* tag (it can contain a revision tag, in which case I don't see any way around deducing the branch tag from the working revision number, as I described). kynn _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
