When you specify a branch number with no revision (which is what 1 is), you get the most recent revision on the branch. Under normal conditions, the trunk is branch 1, so the results are not unexpected. However, the official definition of the "head" revision is the most recent revision on the default branch, which is not necessarily the trunk (it might be a vendor branch instead), and even if it is the trunk, there's no guarantee that the trunk is branch 1 (the user may have forced a higher number), so there's no guarantee that it gets you the head revision. -Larry Jones Girls are so weird. -- Calvin _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
