That's what I suspect. I think that the files were either updated or touched to make sure that the whole tree was propagated the next time people did a CVSup of the tree itself. It's not a big deal, it the first time I've noticed CVSup do that as I usually just look at the exit status of my cron job and go onto the next email. -- Cheers, Cy Schubert <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> FreeBSD UNIX: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Web: http://www.FreeBSD.org e**(i*pi)+1=0 _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
