Personally, when I'm working on something, I stop doing CVS updates because I want the code I'm developing against to be stable. However, when I've made progress, I grab a "cvs diff" to a separate file as a patch. Now that I've grabbed a context sensitive backup of my work, in case something terrible happens, I do the update and bring in everybody else's work. Then I look to see whether they broke what I was working on. _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
