Sometimes I run commands to walk down the filesystem and do things to the files in them. With CVS this was never a problem, never a false hit, because CVS did not keep a pristine copy of the database around. Example: find . -name foo -print0 | xargs -r0 sed --in-place 's/foo/bar/g' But now I find that I need to be aware that in the .svn directory is a pristine copy of the same file. The above won't match because the pristine copy always has .svn-base appended to the end. But the following would match and would edit both the working copy and the pristine copy in the .svn directory. find . -name 'foo*' -print0 | xargs -r0 sed --in-place 's/foo/bar/g' I have no idea if this is possibly the type of thing that happened to you or not. But I thought I would mention it because it seems plausible. Bob
