You're not. The reason you have file 1.1.1.1 is because that is the head revision of the file. This is an internal notion within CVS that you don't need to worry about. Basically, if you import a file on a vendor branch, and the corresponding file is not independently modified on the trunk, the new vendor branch version supersedes the trunk by becoming the new head. If you make a change and commit, it will go to the trunk. E.g. in this case, the next version you commit will create version 1.2, not 1.1.1.2. If you were on the vendor branch, you would have a sticky tag indicating so. _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
