Nope. There is only some hash, and various hacks to emulate with post commit hooks, which is not at all the same in behaviour. some info is at http://llvm.org/docs/Proposals/GitHubMove.html#on-managing-revision-numbers-with-git merging, external repos were some of the other issues. (Potentially) solved issues since the previous discussion were repo dictated configuration (for linefeeds), and the ability to avoid certain branches to have multiple ends (thus leaving the next committer with the unenviable choice to wait or potentially make the situation even more complex). All from memory of ourse. _______________________________________________ fpc-other maillist - fpc-other@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-other
