I don't know :-( I've tried to use the Trac site looking for particular changesets and found that for some of them, the list of files are out of sync with reality, and sometimes the diff don't have anything to do with what the commit message says. I've never been sure if the problem is the repo itself, or the Trac interface. After discovering the problem independently a couple of times (the second time I had forgotten that I had already found a problem), I stopped using it and reverted to using cvs2cl and cvsup. I imagine the problems are caused by manual mangling of the files in the early days, like the perl5 dir stuff you found. -- Alvaro Herrera http://www.CommandPrompt.com/ The PostgreSQL Company - Command Prompt, Inc. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
