Indeed it is, it sounds very good. I like this idea. A lot. The merge, almost by definition, would be a matter of merging manifests for unrelated changes to different files. If the commits overlap in CVS on the same file, it's almost certain to have created a conflict for the CVS users, and they'd then become separate commits around that sequence point. Someone's CVS repository is sure to prove me wrong, of course. -- Dan.
