Doing it at any other time risks spamming a checkout that may be running. The Attic is only looked in if someone is doing cvs with a -r or -D option, which is pretty rare. > 1) just after you've committed the wrong files. Best thing here is to place them into the Attic using cvs, just incase they happened to have landed into /usr/src or /usr/ports. Then wait for the next update of /usr/src and/or /usr/ports. Then go in and blow away the Attic files. > 2) after someone has sup'ed the files. If the files have not been tagged with a release tag of some form one should use the same procedure in Item 1. > 3) after the the files have been moved to Attics. See Item 1, and comment above. Files should only be removed from Attic areas. Also if a file has had a release tag applied to it it should *never* be removed, this is very important for creating diffs. > Bruce Becuase the way that ports are now done it would probably be safe to run a wholesale cleanout of the Attic area in there (I doun't think a tag has ever been applied to the ports area :-)). -- Rod Grimes rgrimes@gndrsh.aac.dev.com Accurate Automation Company Custom computers for FreeBSD
