A question about "cvs update -A". If a file has the sticky tag set to a tag, but the file revision for that tag is the same as HEAD, should "cvs update -A" actually retrieve the file from the server again?
I upgraded from 1.11.17 to 1.11.23, and I have people telling me that previously, update -A would not result in in the file being retrieved from the repository again if clearing the sticky tag did not result in a change in the file revision, but that since updating to 1.11.23, it does. Normally, this wouldn't be an issue, but in both cases, these are large repositories, and they report that previously, "update -A" would finish in a few minutes, but now takes 20 minutes or more. Thanks.
