They've been a great help to many people. as DBD::File is part of DBI, what is the best way to go around? If I'm correct, DBI currently is here: http://svn.perl.org/modules/dbi/trunk/ I don't do svn, but git, and I cloned this with $ git svn clone http://svn.perl.org/modules/dbi/trunk/ DBI-svn $ git clone DBI-svn DBI $ rm -rf DBI-svn I can now see the complete history for DBD::File with $ git log lib/DBD/File.pm From a git point of view, how do I get changes into DBI? Or do you want DBD::File to be split off (I don't think so). -- H.Merijn Brand http://tux.nl Perl Monger http://amsterdam.pm.org/ using & porting perl 5.6.2, 5.8.x, 5.10.x, 5.11.x on HP-UX 10.20, 11.00, 11.11, 11.23, and 11.31, OpenSuSE 10.3, 11.0, and 11.1, AIX 5.2 and 5.3. http://mirrors.develooper.com/hpux/ http://www.test-smoke.org/ http://qa.perl.org http://www.goldmark.org/jeff/stupid-disclaimers/
