Windows' CMD.EXE shell always had binary-safeness in its pipes. I'm not quite sure of the current support of it, tough, as I'm a quite happy CygWin user since ages (where most of the Windows problems are solved or worked-around by the brillian CygWin developers ;)). > If it's not inherently unfixable, though, we should fix it. Mhh, dunno about this, but I could try asking in the [email protected] mailing list, it would be a fairly off-topic message but I'm pretty sure that there there is people with that know-how. > "cat" is supposed to _be_ the easy way to retrieve old versions of a > file :-). In the mean time, the workaround is to do a checkout, like > Richard suggested. Another good idea I read in this thread was the --output option, that would be useless in any case (to write a file directly, avoiding pipes) and would work for sure even in "plain" Windows. Anyway as an half-time Windows user and monotone new-found enthusiast I plan to check this out a bit more deeply and maybe write a test-case. - -- L a p o L u c h i n i l a p o @ l a p o . i t w w w . l a p o . i t / -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (Cygwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkMhtRQACgkQaJiCLMjyUvtUEgCghs9IjsNFtG4cwa1fMXZ092lr Ot0Aniouki4lZ6KnJ05gm84ZHEc5l3HH =ygx6 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Monotone-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/monotone-devel
