Hi all,

My reply with attachments wasn't sent to whole group, check below some 
cuts/answers (hope I did cut the most important parts)


About 'revert/update problems' - I will do further testing and send debug logs


About 'fsvs get killed/out of memory' - please check next email(s)

It is early to say that (I did not mean it).
Just... my backup solution is not ready.

Confirmed! 'fsvs info' show r86 instead r87. Sorry, I did not notice this.

I think I know what the problem is:
        # LANG=C touch /dev/pts/as
        touch: cannot touch `/dev/pts/as': Permission denied
You have 
        devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620)
(like me), but that doesn't allow creating nodes there.

The clean way to solve that is to filter your repository, and remove all 
of /dev/pts, put that path in a ignore pattern, and do an "unversion" on 
that.

"fsvs revert -rX" goes to the repository, and gets all changes from BASE (this 
is the revision your working copy is at - you can see that with "fsvs info") to 
X, and applies these changes to your system - overwriting local changes.
(This overwriting is one major difference to update.)

/var/run is for transient data - like process IDs; I don't think it should be 
committed.
