X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sun, 24 Feb 2008 13:42:28 -0000 I expected RELENG_7 to have newer files than RELENG_7_0 as the latter tracks a release whilst the former tracks CURRENT/STABLE whichever it currently is. However I noticed 2 things. 1 - RELENG_7_0 in newvers.sh shows 7.0-RELEASE whilst RELENG_7 shows PRERELEASE. 2 - RELENG_7_0 has higher version numbers than RELENG_7 on the src files and config files for mergemaster. Given this information is it the case RELENG_7 has simply stopped been updated? possibly even a fault on the cvsup servers I have been using. /usr/src/UPDATING both have the 7.0-RELEASE line however. example below RELENG_7_0 FreeBSD: src/usr.sbin/sysinstall/sysinstall.h,v 1.274.4.1 RELENG_7 FreeBSD: src/usr.sbin/sysinstall/sysinstall.h,v 1.274.2.1 Chris
