rkw,

We are having a discussion in STABLE about how best to track each persons
position in CVS, & CTM.  Basically, We would like to be able to do a 

uname -r

which will result in the message:

FreeBSD 2.2-STABLE-AB

or 

FreeBSD 2.2-STABLE (0360)

I suggested using the .ctm_status file as a permant part of the source tree,
because it does produce a # every so often during the day.

Could you please advise on how often the CTM deltas are created?

I have no idea - I don't have anything to do with CTM delta
generation. :)

Talk to rkw@dataplex.net
