Alas, in windows there is, actually! the long filename strategy used for the revisions is always a drawback - both for performance and some practical issues, like removing those folders :(

Those are great news, indeed! Specially the performance part ;) The checkout part is also important, but not for my emacs configuration - it's always in development phase! > >> I would like to have all in one revision control system, but right >> now what I have is something like: >> >> Arch my-configuration >> | >> |->elisp files >> |->configuration files >> |->external branches >> | >> |-> Arch DVC >> |-> BZR XPTO >> |-> CVS Gnus >> |-> ... >> >> I find this a bit insane, I'd like to get things uniform!

Unfortunately, it's not for windows, but it gave an idea, and I quickly created a basic makefile to have my (arch and cvs) branches updated. I think I'll manage with that, for the time being! (Who knows, in the future DVC may have a tool to do such task in an Emacs-friendly way!) I'll start migrating my baz things to bzr, and let you know my repository after I'm done (may not be in the next few days, but I'll do my best!) -- Edgar Gonçalves Software Engineering Group @ INESC-ID IST/Technical University of Lisbon Rua Alves Redol, 9, Room 635 1000-029 Lisboa, Portugal mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.esw.inesc-id.pt/~eemg _______________________________________________ Xtla-el-dev mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/xtla-el-dev
