[Quilt-dev] Re: My current quilt 0.21 :)

[Martin Quinson]

Ok, this is integrated in the savannah CVS, and taged as 'v_0_21'. I'm not
sure if it's the proper name but it's the one I used.

On the way, I updated the debian package, and added some .cvsignore. I did
not find the time to reformat the content of this mail in a changelog file or 
so.
It would be really great if you could do that.

I did remove the misc directory on the way. I understand what
  akmp-patch-scripts-0.9.tar.gz  jr-quilt-0.1.0.tar.bz2
are, and think they shouldn't live in the CVS as is, but what is
  test.tar.gz
? It looks interesting, but how could it be integrated to the distribution? 

So, do we reached the point where you can use the savannah cvs as your
developpement cvs? It would prevent us from the risk of forking, and we
could also work on this, not only you ;)

I did put the freshly generated debian package and tarball to the savannah
file directory. Could you put the rpm (I can't generate this)?
Just do 
  sftp -1 savannah.nongnu.org
  cd quilt/unstable.pkg/0.21
  put <your files>




James, how does it looks like for you ? Could you add your thought to the
TODO file ?

Many thanks to you, Mt.
