Hi,
I am currently working on a 'cvs push and pull tool', the gory
details of which i shall skip. I have to process files in the working
directory based on the branch that they belong to, if they do.
Now, cederquivist states
>> $ cvs tag -b rel-1-0-patches
>> [snip]
>>Note that the numeric revision number that matches rel-1-0
will probably be different from file to file.
I understand this to mean two files at the head of a newly created
branch may have A.B.C.X and A.B.C.Y as their version numbers.
Can i expect the A.B.C part to be same for both files?
Or do you suggest that going by tags would be a better idea. Either
way, it doesn't hurt to know.
Thanks
Vidya
