Consider this source file:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/usr.sbin/xntpd/lib/Attic/ranny.c
Question: what version should this command checkout?
$ cvs co -D 'January 18, 1999 0:00' freebsd/src/usr.sbin/xntpd/lib/ranny.c
Perhaps version 1.1.1.2 would be correct, but instead you get 1.1.
It seems CVS is being inconsistent:
- If you had done a 'head' checkout on that date you would have gotten 1.1.1.2
- If you later do a 'head' checkout, and specify that date, you get 1.1
What am I missing here.. ? Has this behavior in CVS changed at some point?
Thanks,
-Archie
