Right. I assume branches are kept in the same file as HEAD. I have decided not to regularly update the derived files in WIN32_DEV --- I will just keep the files in their place, and have configure 'touch' them to make them more recent when configure is run --- we are just trying to get the backend to start at this point. -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us [EMAIL PROTECTED] | (610) 359-1001 + If your life is a hard drive, | 13 Roberts Road + Christ can be your backup. | Newtown Square, Pennsylvania 19073 ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 7: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
