Dear all,

I have tagged all the current "HEAD" revision files with the cvs tag "Avisynth_255" this allows for the easy access to the revision of the files used to build the 2.55 release.

Hopefully nobody's CVS client chucks a wobbly with this feature, if so, the tags can easily be removed.

We probably should stamp the cvs files this way for all future major releases. Properly implemented and maintained it can be a great boon when checking diferences between releases.

Would you happen to be a cvs guru ?

If yes, I definitely could use your help.
Last time I tried something unsual (ie not add and commit), I failed miserably :/

I won't claim guru status, but I can usually beat CVS into submission with things like tags and branches.

What do you need to do?

PM me if you think it's to mundane for the forum.

I wanted to add a file in a branch, but not in the current one.

I do not recall exactly what I did, but the file ended in the current branch having the tag for the new one as well :'(

Bidoche,

Normally when working in a branch adding new files only adds them in the current branch. Did you "checkout" the new branch (to a new area) before adding the file. Sounds like you only created the tag and then added the file to the current branch. You have to Tag, Checkout (to somewhere new) and then Add.

I find http://www.loria.fr/~molli/cvs-index.html not bad for CVS help.
