It makes perfect sense instead of rewriting the file everytime. => Right now I have adopted the KISS approach (Keep It Simple, Stupid). =>I am not sure if I will have the time to do something that complex for =>the first release, but it would be very cool if I could. Then again, =>it would be better if the repository I am working with implemented =>versioning to begin with and would not have to exist in my layer.
The history of reverse deltas goes back to Walter Tichy, the famed inventor of RCS. Prior to RCS all we had was SCCS. And we had to *pay* for it!. Why, I remember when we had to program using just zeroes and ones. Hell, I remember when we didn't even have ones. We had to do all our programming with zeroes! And we liked it! -- Time flies like the wind. Fruit flies like a banana. Stranger things have .0. happened but none stranger than this. Does your driver's license say Organ ..0 Donor?Black holes are where God divided by zero. Listen to me! We are all- 000 individuals! What if this weren't a hypothetical question? steve_orr at guardium dot com _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list Info-cvs@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
