ScidvsPC's base is SCID-3.6.26, and full changelog can be found in the
source code, README.txt, also here
https://sourceforge.net/p/scidvspc/code/HEAD/tree/README.txt.

The files page https://sourceforge.net/projects/scidvspc/files/source/
has scid_vs_pc-3.6.26.1.tgz
<https://sourceforge.net/projects/scidvspc/files/source/scid_vs_pc-3.6.26.1.tgz/download>
dated at 4th/june/2009

>From the SCID doc/ChangeLog file (still in ScidvsPC source code), 3.6.26
appears to be dated October 2009, so it is possible i used a slightly
earlier CVS version, but i can't recall. Perhaps that date is wrong too.
SCID's CVS commits were not documented/labeled.
Checking the scid_vs_pc-3.6.26.1.tgz
<https://sourceforge.net/projects/scidvspc/files/source/scid_vs_pc-3.6.26.1.tgz/download>
tarball might clear it up, but i can't do that ATM.

The first SCID release with widespread ttk theme changes (which really
messed up the GUI imho) and made me fork was probably 3.6.27.
In any case, afterwards, i separately applied the Tree interrupt and si4
features, and definitely some other minor ones. I didn't use any VCS for a
long while, just using patches - which maybe i still have, but are no
longer on the files repo. CVS always struck me as very ordinary, but i
eventually found out about subversion.

> I ask because, as best as I can tell, you forked the project in 2010, and
yet I've come across code which was committed to the scid project as far
back as 2008 (and which is still in the latest revision of scid), but which
is nowhere to be found in your repository.  For example, some functions
which Pascal contributed in tcl/utils/validate.tcl which date back to 2008
and were never removed from the scid project but never existed in your
project.

Cheers, Steven
