Well, both deo@freebsd.org and I work for the same employer. (This may or may not be considered a liason point. :-) > Or should I make contact ? In case, I cc'd info-cvs@gnu.org Email to bug-cvs@nongnu.org would be a place to ask about getting bug fixes into CVS sources rather than info-cvs@gnu.org. > I see /usr/src/contrib/cvs/BUGS -> cvs.texinfo > /usr/src/contrib/cvs/doc/cvs.texinfo > > Ref. > http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=82484 > http://berklis.com/~jhs/src/bsd/fixes/FreeBSD/src/gen/contrib/gnu/usr.bin/cvs/cvs.1.REL=ALL.diff Bug reports for CVS should be submitted via the web to: https://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?func=additem&group=cvs Note: I was unable to use the http://berklis.com/~jhs/src/bsd/fixes/FreeBSD/src/gen/contrib/gnu/usr.bin/cvs/cvs.1.REL=ALL.diff link. I have updated the cvs 1.11.x documentation to try to clarify things. Note: cvs 1.12.x is moving toward -r rev:date rather than -r rev -D date, and CVS clients may use this notation if the servers are at 1.12.x.
