Branch numbers are formed by appending an even number to the number of the revision the branch is based on. Since revision numbers are file specific, a branch has different numbers in different files. > I found out that one file is committed with 1.12.2.1 > And other with 1.1.4.1 In the first case, the branch was based on revision 1.12 of the file and is the first branch for that revision (2 is the first even number). The branch number is thus 1.12.2. This is the first commit to that branch, resulting in revision 1.12.2.1. In the second case, the branch was based on revision 1.1 of the file and is the second branch for that revision (4 is the second even number). The branch number is thus 1.1.4. Again, this is the first commit to that branch, resulting in revision 1.12.2.1. -Larry Jones I hate being good. -- Calvin _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list Info-cvs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
