Given your reluctance to upgrade at all 1.11.20 is your best choice.
There should be no issues upgrading to 1.11.20 unless you were doing some behaviors which were contraindicated for a long time like: moving or deleting branch tags without -B. using Checkin.prog and Update.prog functionality. Method options (used by WinCVS & CVS 1.12.7+) in CVSROOTs are ignored. see the following link for full details up through 1.11.19 https://ccvs.cvshome.org/files/documents/19/746/NEWS.1.11.19 Not sure why 1.11.20 is not listed in the archive directory. For a though upgrade it should not hurt to run `cvs init` to get any NEW config files. <SNIP> > [1] > https://ccvs.cvshome.org/servlets/ProjectDocumentList?folderID=193&expandFolder=193&folderID=77 > > [3] > https://ccvs.cvshome.org/servlets/ProjectDocumentList?folderID=87&expandFolder=87&folderID=80 -- Todd Denniston Crane Division, Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC Crane) Harnessing the Power of Technology for the Warfighter _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list Info-cvs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
