Indeed.

The latest non-X.Y revision I found listed by cvsweb was > 1.73.2.96, which was before the project started using SVN. With a Ah. What seems strange is that 1.507.2.34 is there, diff'able, just not apparently logged - if you know the answer, you can pose the question :) > little digging I came up with the following URL for the SVN repro, but I > may not have got exactly what you are after: > > http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base/stable/7/UPDATING?r1=199901&r2=172506 Thanks Nick, that's the one. The Revision Log from there is just what I'd expected to find on cvsweb for that file on that branch. Guess it's time I learned my way around svn/viewvc, but I'm sure going to miss rev. numbers that made linear sense to this bear of little brain! cheers, Ian
