Because, really, how informative is the string "%I%" to most users? We (the SCM Migration project team and several other subject matter experts in various areas) are working on bugs to get rid of all of the non-ident keywords usage. Some of those bug fixes are already integrated, some are coming this evening, many will be part of the SCM project wad tomorrow morning, and it looks like a couple of the larger wads will hit later this week. But that's beside the point. What you need to know is that you should get rid of all SCCS keywords, including any "ident" lines, in any file you push to the Mercurial gate. Val also describes this in the RTI Nits page [2]. And you would never push without following the guidelines there, would you? --Mark [1] http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/on/flag-days/pages/2007080101/ [2] http://opensolaris.org/os/community/on/crt/rti-nits/
