Yes, but it looks like I can oly do one "magic" at a time without a mirror repository and writing in an incremental checkin for a vendor branch (possible with a "cvs log | sed ...", but takes too much local space to do). I posted what I posted because I got tired of the "alls ya gotta do" type answers which are really non-answers because "alls ya gotta do" doesn't work like the poster expects. In general, this area isn't well researched, unfortunately, since I'm one of the few who needs it. > ps. Whatever happened to you uploading a complete /sys tree to some site > for Julian/PHK to look at? I regenerated patches against -current, as a small portion of the changes I want including only the layering issues for namei and the simplification of the EEXISTS code duplication in 5 failure cases. Julian has these patches, and he's examined them in dteal. I don't know if he's given them to John yet or not; he said he was going to. I answered about 15 questions clarifying the nature of the patches for him, since some of the changes seemed counter-intuitive without knowing who was responsible for what. Julian seemed satisfied with the answers. Regards, Terry Lambert terry@lambert.org --- Any opinions in this posting are my own and not those of my present or previous employers.
