In message <200008231651.KAA12190@nomad.yogotech.com> Nate Williams writes: : Unfortunately, it makes it difficult to know how many 'changes' have : gone on since you last updated. Plus, you don't necessarily know : *which* change you are on when you CVSup the tree, since the counter is : not kept as part of the repository. Both true. And both problems today. We won't have the TOPS-20 version numbering where you'd have numbers like 5.0(123) 5.1(345) 5.2(9534) 6.0(23) Also, I don't see a functional difference between DATE-NUMBER and just NUMBER, especially since it isn't in the CVS tree. However, a GMT date down to the second as a change number id, then that would make checking out from CVS to that point possible.
