I believe that this is false. What you describe is the "-ko" flag. CVS also has a "-kb" flag which specifies that the file is a binary. -a
Not true. http://cvsbook.red-bean.com/cvsbook.html states "-ko - Reuses the keyword string found in the file (hence "o" for "old"), as it was in the working file just before the commit. -kb - Like -ko, but also suppresses interplatform line-end conversions. The "b" stands for "binary"; it is the mode you should use for binary files." -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
