IMHO we shouldn't stuff binary files like this in CVS, same goes for the gzipped kernel patches we have to update alsa, those are big and gzipped, CVS can't diff it and will store a completely new file for every revision. Also, you can't tell what's different between two versions of the patch. IMHO we should put binary things like big gzipped patches or tarballs on an HTTP or FTP url. _______________________________________________ arch mailing list arch@archlinux.org http://archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/arch
