IIRC, that was Change Number, but I might be wrong. Perforce, for those that don't know, groups changes together and each group of changes is given a sequential number. Generally speaking, one can speak of a branch as being at a certain Change Number. I say "Generally" because there are a number of loopholes... : In any case, if you generated such links, they would be quite long and : take a lot of room in commit messages, especially for *huge* ones like : importing a whole new version of GCC, or a large number of ports, etc. Good point.
