It is quite reasonable to assume that, in most cases, a discussion more than a month old is no longer relevant. You can always reply via email (assuming that your email address is valid?).

Why? For the most part, CVS revision numbers should be treated as magical black boxes that we mere mortals don't understand, and don't need to understand. That's the whole *purpose* of symbolic tags - removing the need to look at CVS revision numbers. So, again: why do you think you need to do this? What are you trying to accomplish? > The above command only shows file names... Sorry, only one fish per customer (footnote). The CVS commands are well-documented. Have you tried examining the documentation? Take a look at the various commands, pick one that looks like it might do the trick, and then look at the options for that command. Above all - experiment! That's the best way to learn. Create a section of your repository that is specifically designed for experimenting with CVS commands, say $CVSROOT/cvs-test/yourname. Make your mistakes in that directory, and when it gets too cluttered, just blow away that section of the repository: cd $CVSROOT/cvs-test rm -rf yourname FOOTNOTE: for those who don't get the statement: it's a reference to the saying "give a someone a fish and you feed them for a day; teach them to fish, and you feed them for life." -- Jim Hyslop Senior Software Designer Leitch Technology International Inc.
