It is not an issue - they just mean different things - see 'peg revisions' in the documentation. path@rev means go back to the revision, find what was at the path. -r rev path means look at the path in the head revision, and back up to the specified revision number in that object's history. If there have been deletions/moves they may be different things. Usually path@rev is what you expect. -- Les Mikesell lesmikes...@gmail.com
