Hi Bart,

you have to give cvs the command line option "-r UNSTABLE".

interesting!

Turbo C insists that the source files have CRLF line endings.

You ran into the old problem that UNIX CVS clients check out source
files
using LF line endings and Windows (not sure if anyone uses a DOS CVS
client...) clients use CRLF line endings.

So you've been playing the batch file cat and mouse game once again.

Next time somebody uses CVS on Windows, sees CRCRLF endings and corrects
them again!

Ahhhhhhhhhrgh! Since the joe editor automatically toggles
between CRLF and LF display I keep overlooking that kind
of problem :-(. Any method to tell Unix cvs to download
the files with CRLF? And, conversely, upload as LF? As far
as I understand you, I have to upload as LF, otherwise
Windows downloads as CRCRLF?

It would be great if you could revert my batch file change...
Question about the CRLF story and the UNSTABLE thing: Will
changes to the stable kernel automatically end up in the
UNSTABLE kernel as well? I fear that not...

And of course: Please suggest some UN-OVERLOOKABLE (;-))
place where I can put up a big warning about the CRLF
caveat and the "how to download the UNSTABLE branch"
issue, thanks!

Eric

PS: Given the branch magic and stuff, how can I tag some
state as "all this is 2036 stable" or as "all the
UNSTABLE branch of this is 2037 pre unstable" in cvs?

PPS: There are already UPDATES again which are not yet
in the cvs and not in the file release --> COM port
"get input status" added / "nondestructive input no
longer relies on DSR" and VERSION= fixed (from "modifies
internal version" to "modifies setver-able version")
