Then why did Subversion choose to follow the CVS way and create a subdirectory in each versioned directory? IMO, this is much more annoying given the alternative of a single .hg/.bzr/whatever directory. For .pyc vs .pyr, you didn't have the alternative of putting all that stuff in one directory now. Georg -- Thus spake the Lord: Thou shalt indent with four spaces. No more, no less. Four shall be the number of spaces thou shalt indent, and the number of thy indenting shall be four. Eight shalt thou not indent, nor either indent thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to four. Tabs are right out. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
