2000-11-08  Derek Price  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (settitle): add the version number to the title string
    so that it is easier to find on HTML pages and the like.

    that they're rootless.

2000-07-12  Larry Jones  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Module program options): Remove note that commit and
    update programs only working locally; they've worked client/server
    for quite some time.

2000-07-10  Larry Jones  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Invoking CVS): Document new version command.

    * cvs.texinfo : Adding John Cavanaugh's patch to allow
    the history file to log actions based on the CVSROOT/config

    history file)

2000-01-11  Larry Jones  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo: Add index entries for "Compression" and "Gzip".
    Correct typography in many index entries (English phrases should
    have initial caps, subcommands/files/etc. should be as-is).

2000-01-10  Karl Fogel  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (loginfo): correctly describe CVSROOT/loginfo's
    %-expansion behavior.  Thanks to Karl Heinz Marbaise
    <[e-mail]> for noticing the error.

2000-01-07  Larry Jones  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Password authentication server): Use -f in example
    inetd.conf line.
    (Connection): Add advice about using shell script or env to avoid
    problems with inetd setting HOME in the server's environment.
    (various): Use @file for inetd.conf.

2000-01-02  John P Cavanaugh <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo: document new -C option to update, now that it works
    both remotely and locally.
    (Re-applied by Karl Fogel <[e-mail]>.)

1999-12-11  Karl Fogel  <[e-mail]>

    * Revert previous change -- it doesn't work remotely yet.

1999-12-10  John P Cavanaugh <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo: document new -C option to update.
    (Applied by Karl Fogel <[e-mail]>.)

1999-11-20  Larry Jones  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo(history options): Document -f, -n, and -z.

1999-11-09  Jim Kingdon  <http://developer.redhat.com/>

    * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Document the arguments to "log", now
    that I've changed log.c to be more specific in terms of what it
    will send.

1999-11-05  Larry Jones  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo: Revert Karl's change once again since the code is now
    fixed.  Add "Variables" and "User variables" to index.

1999-11-04  Karl Fogel  <[e-mail]>

    * log.c (log_usage): Revert Jim Kingdon's reversion of my change
    of 1999-11-03.  Allowing a space between option and argument
    results in lossage; here is a reproduction recipe: run this from
    the top of a remote copy of the cvs source tree

       cvs log -d '>1999-03-01' > log-out.with-space

    and then run this (note there's no space after -d now):

       cvs log -d'>1999-03-01' > log-out.no-space

    The resulting files differ; furthermore, a glance at the output of
    cvs shows that the first command failed to recurse into
    subdirectories.  Until this misbehavior can be fixed in the source
    code, the documentation should reflect the true state of affairs:
    if one simply omits the space, everything works fine.

1999-11-04  Jim Kingdon  <http://developer.redhat.com/>

    * cvs.texinfo (log options): Revert Karl's change regarding -d and
    -s.  A space is allowed (see sanity.sh for example).

    * cvs.texinfo (Password authentication server): The name of the
    file is "passwd" not "password".

    * cvsclient.texi (Top): Add @dircategory and @direntry.

1999-11-04  Karl Fogel  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Password authentication server, Password
    authentication client): Rewritten to accommodate the [new]
    possibility of empty passwords.

1999-11-03  Karl Fogel  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Invoking CVS): correct documentation for -d and -s
    options (as did elsewhere, earlier today).

1999-11-03  Karl Fogel  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Setting a watch): describe `watch off' behavior
    more accurately.

1999-11-03  Karl Fogel  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (log options): correct documentation for -d and -s
    options.  There can be no space between these options and their
    arguments.

    Also, make sure all @sc{cvs} codes refer to "cvs" in lower case;
    this avoids makeinfo warnings.  And use @code for the CVSEDITOR
    environment variable, not @sc.

1999-09-24  Larry Jones  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo: Misc. formatting cleanups.

1999-07-16  Tom Tromey  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (admin): Mention admin -k exception.  Add cvsadmin
    to index.

1999-07-14  Larry Jones  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Password authentication server): Note inetd limits
    and suggest using shell script to avoid.

1999-06-01  Jim Kingdon  <http://www.cyclic.com>

    * cvsclient.texi (Requests): For the import command, the
    repository given to the Directory requests is ignored.

1999-05-27  Jim Kingdon  <http://www.cyclic.com>

    * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Clarify that Modified, Is-modified,
    Notify and Unchanged must specify a file within the current
    directory.

1999-05-24  Jim Kingdon  <http://www.cyclic.com>

    * cvs.texinfo (checkoutlist): New node, contains more complete
    documentation of this feature.
    (CVSROOT storage): Refer to the new node when mentioning
    checkoutlist.
    (Administrative files): Update the menu entry for Wrappers.

1999-05-17  Jim Kingdon  <http://www.cyclic.com>

    * cvsclient.texi (Requests): For Notify request, strike duplicate
    "Response expected: no" and fix "a edit" -> "an edit".

1999-05-14  Jim Kingdon  <http://www.cyclic.com>

    * cvs.texinfo (Working directory storage): Try to be more clear
    about the conflict field.

1999-05-11  Jim Kingdon  <http://www.cyclic.com>

    * cvs.texinfo (config): Use comma after @xref (thanks to Pavel
    Roskin for the report/fix).

1999-05-10  Jim Kingdon  <http://www.cyclic.com>

    * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Document restrictions on characters
    in Notify requests.

1999-05-04  Jim Kingdon  <http://www.cyclic.com>

    * cvs.texinfo (Password authentication security): Remove sentence
    about how no one has audited pserver for holes; a lot of holes
    have been closed, looking for, &c, since that was written.
    In the summary, reword to reflect the fact that sniffing a
    readonly password does not imply general system access (as far as
    I know, of course).

    * cvs.texinfo (Connection): Also suggest inetd -d.

1999-04-28  Jim Kingdon  <http://www.cyclic.com>

    * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Say what goes in the "watches" field
    of the "Notify" request.

    * cvs.texinfo (Common options): -r is for branches too.

    * cvs.texinfo (Error messages): Add "no such tag" message.
    (Common options): -f does not override val-tags check.

1999-04-26  Jim Kingdon  <http://www.cyclic.com>

    * cvs.texinfo (Locks): #cvs.rfl locks must start with "#cvs.rfl."
    not just "#cvs.rfl".  As far as I know CVS has always implemented
    the former behavior, and this just fixes the documentation.

1999-04-23  Yoshiki Hayashi of u-tokyo.ac.jp

    * cvs.texinfo (verifymsg): Correct wrong file name (bugid.edit ->
    bugid.verify).

1999-04-22  Jim Kingdon  <http://www.cyclic.com>

    * cvsclient.texi (Responses): The text in the "M" response is not
    designed for machine parsing.  Likewise for "error" in regular
    protocol.  Likewise for "E" and "error" in authentication protocol.

1999-04-19  Jim Kingdon  <http://www.cyclic.com>

    * cvs.texinfo (Error messages): Add "Cannot check out files into
    the repository itself".

1999-04-16  Jim Kingdon  <http://www.cyclic.com>

    * cvs.texinfo (Other problems): Add the Windows problem with home
    directory ending in a slash.

1999-04-14  Jim Kingdon  <http://www.cyclic.com>

    * cvs.texinfo (CVS in repository): Include the format of the
    fileattr file here, rather than referring to the CVS source code.

1999-04-09  Jim Kingdon  <http://www.cyclic.com>

    * cvs.texinfo (Working directory storage): Whether the timestamp
    in CVS/Entries is local or universal actually depends on the system.

1999-04-05  Derek Price
    <http://www-personal.engin.umich.edu/~oberon/resume.html>

    * cvs.texinfo (export options): Remove notation that the -r
    tag is sticky.  'cvs export' doesn't store that data.

1999-04-08  Jim Kingdon  <http://www.cyclic.com>

    * cvs.texinfo (Error messages): Add "EOF in RCS file" and
    "unexpected EOF" (in RCS file) messages.

1999-03-25  Jim Kingdon  <http://www.cyclic.com>

    * cvs.texinfo (admin options): Say there can be no space between
    -e and its argument (since the previous sentence said the argument
    can be omitted, this is the only possibility).

1999-02-26  Jim Kingdon  <http://www.cyclic.com>

    * cvs.texinfo (Merging and keywords): When including conflict
    markers, put @asis{} at the start of the line, in case this file
    itself is in CVS.  Thanks to Derek Price for pointing this out.

1999-02-25  Jim Kingdon  <http://www.cyclic.com>

    * cvs.texinfo: Refer to "keywords" not "RCS keywords".  We had
    only used the latter term in a few places, and it seems like a
    somewhat odd term in that this style of keyword is by no means
    specific to RCS.
    (Merging a branch): Remove spurious ")".  Use ref, not xref, after
    "see".
    (Merging a branch, Substitution modes): Make sure that @ref is
    followed by comma, since info wants that.
    (Merging and keywords): Use samp not code for "-kk".  Something of
    a judgement call, but the rest of the manual uses samp and that
    seems better to me.
    (Merging and keywords): Rewrite, to (a) better motivate the
    discussion based on what the user wants to do, (b) fix up lots of
    convoluted sentences, (c) move the discussion of the binary files
    to the end, that is get across the basic idea first and then
    embellish it.  Remove a few unnecessary index entries.  Expand
    example.  Just tell people to avoid -kk with binary files (comment
    out the discussion of using -A after the commit).

1999-01-29  Derek Price
    <http://www-personal.engin.umich.edu/~oberon/resume.html>

    * cvs.texinfo:  Added new node/section on merging and keywords.  It
    contains advice on how to avoid RCS keyword conflicts when merging
    and avoid corrupting your binary files while doing it.

1999-02-24  Jim Kingdon  <http://www.cyclic.com>

    * cvsclient.texi (Request intro): Add paragraph about transmitting
    more than one command.

1999-01-29  Jim Kingdon  <http://www.cyclic.com>

    * cvs.texinfo: Use EXAMPLE.COM EXAMPLE.ORG and EXAMPLE.NET instead
    of domains which might conflict with actual (current or future)
    domains.  The EXAMPLE domains are registered for this purpose.

1999-01-22  Jim Kingdon  <http://www.cyclic.com>

    * cvs.texinfo (Sticky tags): Refer to -j as the better way to undo
    a change.
    (Merging two revisions): Also talk about undoing removals and
    adds.  Move the index entries to here.

1999-01-21  Jim Kingdon  <http://www.cyclic.com>

    * cvs.texinfo (Error messages): Add "waiting for USER's lock".

1999-01-16  Jim Kingdon  <http://www.cyclic.com>

    * cvs.texinfo (Wrappers): Comment out all the -t/-f documentation,
    since that feature is currently disabled.

1999-01-14  Jim Kingdon  <http://www.cyclic.com>

    * cvs.texinfo (Connecting via rsh): Add some more index entries so
    that people who want to use SSH and such are slightly less lost.

1999-01-12  Jim Kingdon  <http://www.cyclic.com>

    * cvs-paper.ms: Remove comments which contained the FSF's old
    address; it has changed.

1998-12-29  Jim Kingdon  <http://www.cyclic.com>

    * cvsclient.texi (Dates): Numeric timezones are preferred.
    Also mention the Checkin-time request.

1998-12-23  Jim Kingdon  <http://www.cyclic.com>

    * RCSFILES: Add clarification about certain character set issues
    from Paul Eggert, the RCS maintainer.  The last paragraph and the
    change from Shift-JIS to JIS as an example of a character set
    which contains 0x40 bytes which are not '@' characters are mine;
    the rest is directly from Paul Eggert.

1998-12-22  Martin Buchholz  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo: Fixed various trivial typos.

1998-12-17  Jim Kingdon

    * cvsclient.texi (Responses): Explicitly say that Mod-time need
    not be sent for all files.

1998-12-16  Jim Kingdon

    Thanks to Ram Rajadhyaksha of the MacCVS Pro team for raising the
    following issues.
    * cvs.texinfo (Working directory storage): The deal about storing
    files as text files applies to all the CVS/* files, not just
    CVS/Entries.  State the rationale too.
    Document CVSROOT/Emptydir in CVS/Repository.
    There is no set order in CVS/Entries.
    Explicitly say that writing Entries.Log is optional.

1998-12-03  Jim Kingdon

    * cvs.texinfo (Error messages): Add "unrecognized auth response".
    (Password authentication server): Remove comment about
    "unrecognized auth response" and link to the troubleshooting
    section.

1998-12-02  Jim Kingdon

    * cvs.texinfo (Multiple repositories): Add an example.

1998-11-18  Jim Kingdon

    * cvs.texinfo (Invoking CVS): Change "-r tag" to "-r rev".  We
    already use "tag" as the name of the tag we are adding.

1998-11-13  Jim Kingdon

    * cvs.texinfo (CVS commands): Add comment about whether part of
    the manual should be organized by command.

1998-11-06  Jim Kingdon

    Clean up various confusions between modules and directories:
    * cvs.texinfo: In "are you sure you want to release" message,
    change module to directory.  CVS was changed some time ago.
    (Tags): "working copy of the module" -> "working directory".
    (Merging two revisions): Remove unnecessary text "that make up a
    module".
    (Recursive behavior): Change "module" to "directory".
    (Removing files): Likewise.
    (Tracking sources): Remove "a module" from titles.
    (Moving directories): Change "module" to "parent-dir".
    (Inside): Remove "of the module".
    (Inside): Change "module" to "dir".
    (Rename by copying): Change "module" to "dir".
    (Rename by copying): Remove "of the module".
    (Moving directories): "copy of the module" -> "checked out copy of
    the directory"; remove second "of the module".  Change "check out
    the module" to " check out again".
    (Moving directories): Remove "of the module".
    (Keyword substitution): "your working copy of a module" -> "a
    working directory".
    (CVS commands): Change "module" to "directory".
    (release examples): "module" -> "tc directory".
    (commitinfo): "relative path to the module" -> "directory in the
    repository".
    (verifymsg): Change "module" to "directory".
    (Updating a file): "working copy of a module" -> "working directory".

1998-10-25  Jim Kingdon

    * cvs.texinfo (Branches and revisions): Fix error in branch
    numbering which was introduced with change of 4 May 1997.

1998-10-20  Jim Kingdon

    * cvs.texinfo (Tags): Point to Invoking CVS node so people aren't
    left wondering what the syntax is.  When introducing -r option,
    warn people about sticky tags right off.
    (Tagging the working directory, Tagging by date/tag, Modifying
    tags, Tagging add/remove): New sections.
    (Invoking CVS): Adjust tag and rtag to point to the new sections,
    and to add tag -c which had been omitted.  Delete tag -n; there is
    no such option.
    (rtag, tag): Removed; no longer needed.
    (commit examples): Update xref.

1998-10-15  Jim Kingdon

    * cvsclient.texi (Requests): It is OK to send Set before Root.

1998-10-13  Jim Kingdon

    * cvsclient.texi (Protocol Notes): Remove item about "cvs update"
    sending modified files to the server; there are some better ideas
    at http://www.cyclic.com/cvs/dev-update.txt
    Add mention of www.cyclic.com.

1998-09-30  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Committing your changes, Environment variables):
    Document VISUAL.

1998-09-27  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Password authentication server): Say explicitly
    that you edit passwd directly, many users get confused by this.

1998-09-24  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Connecting via fork): :fork: may be of interest to
    users, for example those who prefer CVS to prompt for one log
    message per checkin, rather than one per directory.
    (Connecting via fork): Document CVS_SERVER.

1998-09-24  Noel Cragg  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Connecting via fork): new node about the fork
    access method.

1998-09-22  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Environment variables): Document
    CVS_IGNORE_REMOTE_ROOT in the CVS 1.10 context.
    (Moving a repository): Update comments concerning surgery on
    CVS/Root and CVS/Repository files.

1998-09-21  Noel Cragg  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Environment variables): remove information about
    CVS_IGNORE_REMOTE_ROOT, since it's no longer used.

1998-09-21  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (config): Mention that CVS 1.10 doesn't have
    LockDir.

1998-09-18  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Keyword list): Describe $Name and checking out with
    a revision.

1998-09-16  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo: RFC2346 is out; update comment.

1998-09-13  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Keyword list, Substitution modes): In describing
    $Locker and -kkvl, refer to cvs admin -l.

    * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Re-word description of Sticky to
    allow room for "Ntagname" (or other, future, values).

    * cvs.texinfo (tag): Remove confusing wording about supplying
    revision numbers "implicitly".

1998-09-10  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (rdiff options): Thanks to the diff library, -u is
    supported regardless of your diff program.

1998-09-07  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (config): Add LockDir.

1998-09-01  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvsclient.texi (Requests): "Directory" and "Argument" are
    requests, not commands.  Likewise for "other-request".  A command,
    roughly, is a request that uses "Argument"s, but we might want to
    phase out the use of that term more so than codify it, I'm not sure.

1998-09-01  Noel Cragg  <[e-mail]>

    * cvsclient.texi (Requests): added a detailed explanation of the
    Directory request and how it is handled, both for pre-1.10 and
    post-1.10 servers.

1998-09-01  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Multiple repositories): Also describe the CVS 1.10
    behavior.  Looking at a mismatched version of the manual seems to
    be a reasonably common occurrence.

    * cvs.texinfo (Environment variables): Revert change regarding
    CVS_SERVER_SLEEP*; having that kind of debugging code in the main
    CVS is getting out of hand.

1998-09-01  Noel Cragg  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Multiple repositories): brief mention that cvs now
    handles a working directory composed of multiple repositories.
    (Environment variables): add note about CVS_SERVER_SLEEP2.

1998-08-21  Ian Lance Taylor  <[e-mail]>

    * cvsclient.texi (Text tags): Document importmergecmd tag.

1998-08-20  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Common options): Replace out of date URL concerning
    ISO8601 dates with a more general statement and a few comments.

1998-08-18  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Add "Checkin-time" request.

Sun Jul 26 02:42:20 1998  Noel Cragg  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (config): TopLevelAdmin variable.

    * cvsclient.texi (Requests): fix typo.

1998-07-14  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvsclient.texi (Requests): "remove" is like "add" in the sense
    that it is the "ci" request which does most of the work.

1998-06-23  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Excluding directories): Fix order of
    "!first-dir/sdir" and "first-dir" to match what CVS actually
    accepts.  Reported by Tim McIntosh of sterling.com.

1998-06-09  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Using keywords): Rewrite to be less specific to
    source code in C.  The old text was worse than that; it was
    specific to certain versions of GCC (not even current GCC's, I
    don't think) (reported most recently by Mitchell Perilstein;
    if memory serves by others before that).

1998-06-08  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Concurrency): Also mention #cvs.lock.  Don't
    mention #cvs.tfl; it is quite old (before CVS 1.5).
    (Locks, Backing up, Concurrency): Add more index entries.

1998-06-03  Ian Lance Taylor  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Tracking sources): Clarify that the vendor branch
    is only made the head revision when you import a new file, not any
    time you import a file.

1998-05-23  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (What is CVS?): info-cvs-request is now at gnu.org
    and is no longer handled by a human (hallelujah).

1998-05-12  Jim Meyering  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo: Add an info dir entry.
    Remove trailing white space.

1998-05-05  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Wrappers): Be more explicit that -m 'COPY' has no
    effect on binary files.

1998-05-02  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * RCSFILES: Add more discussion of the order of the revisions.

1998-04-27  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (loginfo example): Also give example of sending
    mail.  Use internal variable $USER rather than expecting CVS to
    set the environment variable $USER.  Change unnecessary 'sed'
    invocation to 'cat' (it suffered from the same problem in terms of
    internal variables versus environment variables).

    * cvs.texinfo (Error messages): Add "conflict: removed FILE was
    modified by second party".

1998-04-20  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Common options): Update comment about meaning of
    HEAD in cvs diff.

1998-04-12  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvsclient.texi (Dates): Also mention log -d.

    * cvs.texinfo (Invoking CVS): No space is allowed between -r or -w
    and its argument, for the log command.

1998-04-11  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvsclient.texi (Dates): New section, explaining the deal with
    date formats.

1998-04-09  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Global options, Invoking CVS): Fix typo
    ("files files" -> "files").
    (Invoking CVS): Make -q and -Q more concise.
    (Invoking CVS): Use @var for metavariables in "diff -r".

1998-03-17  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (~/.cvsrc): In example, put "checkout" rather than
    "co" into .cvsrc; we just finished explaining that only the former
    works!  Thanks to Lenny Foner for reporting this.

    * cvs.texinfo (Copying): Remove this node.  This basically
    restores the status quo prior to 18 Oct 1996 (before then the node
    existed but was empty).
    (before Top): Adjust copyright notice accordingly.

1998-03-12  Tim Pierce  <[e-mail]>

    * RCSFILES: Updated description of `hardlinks' newphrases.

1998-03-07  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Tags, Sticky tags, Creating a branch, Accessing
    branches): Rename release-0-1 tag to rel-0-1 and likewise for
    release-0-1-patches and release-0-4.  This fixes an overfull hbox.
    (diff options): Reformat table to fix underfull hboxes and such.

1998-03-07  Tim Pierce  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Editing files, Special Files): Document hardlinks.
    Various cleanups to PreservePermissions text.
    * RCSFILES: Document PreservePermissions newphrases.

1998-03-04  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    and hard links across directories.

1998-03-01  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Keeping a checked out copy): The magic loginfo
    incantation isn't too likely to work except on unix.

1998-02-23  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (user-defined logging): Double "@" literal.

1998-02-18  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (user-defined logging): Add taginfo example.

1998-02-04  Tim Pierce  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (config): PreservePermissions variable.

    where we talk about reverting to vendor branch.

    * cvs.texinfo (Invoking CVS, rdiff options): Document rdiff -V
    option as obsolete, since it was made a fatal error some time ago.

    * cvs.texinfo (Invoking CVS): Add global options, keywords, and
    keyword substitution modes.  Wording fix in reference to --help
    and Index.

Wed Jan 28 23:09:39 1998  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Excluding directories): Add index entry for "!".

28 Jan 1998  Karl Fogel and Jim Kingdon

    * cvsclient.texi (Requests, Responses): document
    "wrapper-sendme-rcsOptions" and "Wrapper-rcsOption".

Tue Jan 27 18:37:37 1998  Ian Lance Taylor  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Excluding directories): New node, documenting how
    to exclude directories using ! in an alias module.

Sun Jan 18 18:23:02 1998  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Add Kopt request.

Thu Jan  1 17:36:42 1998  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (BUGS, Credits): Change @unnumbered to @appendix now
    that these are moved from the start to the end.

Sat Dec 27 10:06:56 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Error messages): Add "Too many arguments!".

Fri Dec 26 18:30:26 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (What is CVS?): Just point to the two canonical web
    sites (Pascal Molli and Cyclic) concerning CVS downloads.  The GNU
    URL was out of date and GNU only has source distributions anyway.

    * cvs.texinfo: Change bug-cvs address to gnu.org per email from
    Martin Hamilton.

Tue Dec 23 18:04:09 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Sticky tags): Further cleanups.  Fix thinko
    (s/subsequent cvs update/& commands/).  Remove "vi driver.c" and
    commit from example (totally vestigial).  Reword start of
    paragraph on non-branch sticky tags, so that it better alludes
     to branch sticky tags.  When introducing sticky tags, make it
    clear that even people who aren't trying to use sticky tags
    may need to know how to avoid them.  Restore comment about
    CVS/Tag files.
    (Accessing branches): Don't xref to merging here; that is a much
    more advanced topic and the "but see" wording didn't tell us what
    to see the xref about.

Tue Dec 23 14:39:08 1997  Karl Fogel  <[e-mail]>
              and Jim Kingdon

    * cvs.texinfo (Creating a branch): Rewritten.  Introduce with
    `tag', then discuss `rtag' and `-r'.

              and Jim Kingdon

    (Accessing branches): New node in "Branching and merging",
    explains how to use checkout vs update to retrieve a branch.
    Text and example inherited from "Sticky tags", but text mostly
    rewritten.
    (Sticky tags): Moved under "Revisions", rewritten somewhat (more
     rewrites to follow).
    Don't use "-v" in "cvs status" example.

Mon Dec 22 11:46:05 1997  Karl Fogel  <[e-mail]>
              and Jim Kingdon

    Cleanups related to recent separation of revisions from
    branching/merging:
    * cvs.texinfo (Revisions): Take paragraph introducing branches,
    rewrite it and move it to "Branching and merging".
    (Branching and merging): Also rewrite merging intro.
    (Revision numbers): Don't go into detail about branch revision
    numbers here, just mention that they happen and refer to new
    node "Branches and revisions".
    (Branches and revisions): New node under "Branching and merging",
    inherits text from "Revision numbers".
    (Creating a branch): Refer to "Branches and revisions" now, not
    "Revision numbers".
    (Binary why): Rewrite sentence which refers to merging, so that
    it isn't specific to branch merging.
    (Branches motivation): Fix typo (select -> elect).  Add comment
    about what this node is accomplishing, in general.

Sun Dec 21 20:57:24 1997  Karl Fogel  <[e-mail]>
              and Jim Kingdon

     (Revisions): Renamed from "Revisions and branches".
    (Branching and merging): Renamed from "Merging".
    (Branches motivation, Creating a branch, Sticky tags, Magic branch
    numbers): these subnodes moved to "Branching and merging" from
    "Revisions".
    everywhere: Adjusted cross-references to cope with above.

Sun Dec 21 20:36:39 1997  Karl Fogel  <[e-mail]>
              and Jim Kingdon

    Note that this is just moving text, not changing it:
    * cvs.texinfo: divide top-level menu into sections.
    (Multiple developers, Builds, Tracking sources, Keyword
    substitution): moved to be in "CVS and the Real World" section.
    (Compatibility): moved to be in "References" section.

Mon Dec 22 08:54:31 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvsclient.texi (Example): In comment, in citing the BNF style
    used in many RFCs, cite RFC2234 not RFC822 (now that the former is
    out).

Sun Dec 21 17:42:22 1997  Karl Fogel  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Overview): New node.
    (What is CVS?, A sample session): Put under Overview.

Wed Nov 12 21:57:40 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (File permissions, Connecting via rsh, Environment
    variables): When putting an environment variable in the index, say
    it is an environment variable.  Don't index the same name twice.

    * cvs.texinfo: Many edits to reflect the fact that CVS no longer
    invokes external RCS programs.

    doing merges manually.

    * cvs.texinfo (admin options): Add discussion of what happens if

Wed Oct 29 11:52:05 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    use).  Add comment about making compilers happy about rcsids.

    flags really work.  Give examples.
    (export options): refer the reader to the descriptions for `-d'

    the program which expands keywords.

Fri Sep 19 22:57:24 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * RCSFILES: Grammar fix in first paragraph.  Re-word section on
    dead newphrase.  Add item about what it means if "expand" is omitted.

    * cvs.texinfo (Magic branch numbers): Change example branch number
    from 1.2.3 to 1.2.4; CVS assigns even branch numbers and I don't
    think vendor branches are very relevant to this example.

Wed Sep 17 17:21:33 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (admin options): Add comment about "cvs admin -b"
    (with no argument to the -b).

Sun Sep  7 18:38:23 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    of HOME, HOMEDRIVE, and HOMEPATH.
    (Error messages): Add "could not find out home directory".

    * cvs.texinfo (Binary files): Reword the section on what you need
    to do with cvs admin -kb to hopefully be a bit clearer.  Still not
    ideal (see comment).

    modules, regular modules, ampersand modules, and options.  Expand
    text with more examples and explanations.  Add index entries.

    [e-mail].

Tue Aug 26 12:25:42 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    rather than Keyword expansion.  Credit goes to [e-mail]

Mon Aug 18 17:23:18 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    could be detecting the case of dead files killed by CVS 1.3.

    * cvs.texinfo (From other version control systems): Add paragraph
    about converting from systems which don't export RCS files.

    * cvsclient.texi (Responses): Cite RFC1321 for MD5.

    * cvs.texinfo (A sample session): Nuke index entry for "A sample
    session".  The fact that this isn't "sample session" is totally

    concerning unknown -x option.

    * cvs.texinfo (Wrappers): Add comment about absolute filter pathname.

    * cvsclient.texi (Connection and Authentication): Don't use @samp

    syntax.

    * cvsclient.texi (Response intro): Add discussing of file updating
    responses and file update modifying responses.
    (Responses): Refer to this description rather than trying to
    describe it in each place.  The descriptions in each place were
    somewhat incomplete and didn't get updated when new file updating
    responses were added.

    Response pathnames, and Responses.

    (admin options): Fix documentation of $Log.
    (admin examples): Remove example concerning comment leader, since
    the example no longer does what it claims to.
    (admin, admin options): Fix various parts of the documentation to
    not refer to this being implemented via RCS.  Say nastier things
    about -I and -x.  Add comments about options to "rcs" which we

    be more verbose and less unix-specific.

Sat Jul  5 03:16:38 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvsclient.texi (Connection and Authentication): When we said to
    "ignore" an unrecogized code we mean to treat it as nonspecific,
    not to ignore the response.

    * cvsclient.texi (Example): Refer to RFC2119 when referring to
    terminology of MUST, SHALL, &c.

    * cvs.texinfo (Password authentication security): Note about
    permissions on $CVSROOT also applies to its parent and so on up to
    /.

Mon Jun 23 18:28:18 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    replaced by item 186 in TODO.  Add a general reference to TODO.

    * cvs.texinfo (Keyword substitution): Where it refers to RCS

    * RCSFILES: Add list of known newphrase extensions.

    Add index entries for "exit status, of <something which CVS invokes>".

    * cvs.texinfo (Administrative files): Add comment concerning
    writing triggers and particularly performance issues.

    * cvs.texinfo (rtag options, tag options): Don't discuss what old
    versions did with respect to the behavior now controlled by -F; we
    don't try to document old versions here.  Add comments concerning
    how -F should be documented.  Add index entries for "renaming
    tags" and such pointing to "tag -F".

Wed May 14 12:16:19 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    by Jim Kingdon to reflect recent changes in cvs.texinfo)

    * cvs.texinfo (Compatibility): Add comment about "D" lines in
    Entries.

    * cvs.texinfo (CVS commands, diff): Change "run diffs" to "show
    differences"; the former is jargon.
    (CVS commands): Don't refer to "rlog" in describing what log does.

    * Makefile.in (cvsclient.dvi cvsclient.aux): Run texi2dvi rather
    than (poorly) emulating it ourself.

    Fix overfull and underfull hboxes:
    * cvs.texinfo (What is CVS?): Add words "the newsgroup" before
    "comp.sources.unix".
    (Credits): Put list of people in @display.
    (Repository files): Put /usr/local/cvsroot in @example.
    (Connecting via rsh): Change "anklet" to "toe" in example.
    (Kerberos authenticated, Password authentication client, Password
    authentication server): Change "brickyard" to "yard" in example.
    (Read-only access): Use @example and refer to files with a shorter
    pathname.
    (Server temporary directory): Use @example for pathname.
    (Watches Compatibility): Add phony line break.
    (Revision numbers): Remove revision 1.2.2.2 and tighten up the
    spacing for "the main trunk".
    (Tags, Creating a branch): Change /usr/local/cvsroot to /u/cvsroot.
    (Merging more than once): Tighten up spacing for "the main trunk".
    (Recursive behavior): Put long command in @example.

    * cvs.texinfo (Credits): Don't refer to appendix A and B, they
    have been renumbered.  Reword so that it works whether the text in
    question has since been rewritten or not.

    * cvs.texinfo (BUGS): Rewrite to reflect the many different ways
    that one might want to handle bugs.  Move information on Signum
    and Cyclic from Preface to here.  Remove information on known
    deficiencies in the manual (some of them I'm not sure were really
    things in need of improvement; others were too general to be
    useful).  For the most part FIXME comments are probably better for
    this.  Remove "Linkoping, October 1993, Per Cederqvist"--many
    parts of the manual are now from other people, dates, and places.
    (What is CVS): For the most part, just refer to BUGS concerning
    bug-cvs.  Also tell people how to subscribe to bug-cvs.
    (Credits): Say that list is not comprehensive and refer to
    ChangeLog.

Sat May  3 10:51:58 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    and the working directory not being subdirectories of each other.

Mon Apr 28 11:12:56 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Removing files): Use "*.c" not "?.c" in example;
    the former should be good for both unix and DOS-like operating
    systems.  Document -f option.  Refer to Invoking CVS for a full
    list of options.  Add a few comments.

    * cvs.texinfo (Invoking CVS): For checkout and update, call them
    "sticky options" not "sticky kopts".

    * cvs.texinfo (Editing files): Add additional comments on get
    vs. checkout.

Sun Apr 27 16:17:06 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (commit): Only document the current flags (where -f
    is force and -F file gets the message from a log file).  We had
    partly made this change on 9 Feb 1997, but some places got missed.

    * RCSFILES: Add discussion of the common concern regarding
    applying deltas to get to a branch head.

    * DIFFUTILS-2.7-BUG: New file.

    * cvs.texinfo (File status): Refer to "Invoking CVS", not
    "status", for status options.  Add paragraph about how "cvs -n -q
    update" is another way to display file status.
    (update examples): Removed; it had contained the "cvs -n -q
    update" material.
    (Invoking CVS): xref to "File status" and "Tags", not "status" and
    "status options".
    (status, status options): Removed.
    (update options, checkout options): xref to "Invoking CVS"
    not "status".

    * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Clarify how long-lived Sticky and
    Static-directory are.

    * cvs.texinfo: Add @finalout.

    * cvs.texinfo (Error messages): Add "cannot change permissions on
    temporary directory" message.

Wed Apr 23 00:38:17 1997  Ian Lance Taylor  <[e-mail]>

Tue Apr 22 14:23:32 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvsclient.texi (Protocol Notes): Expand ideas on multisite
    features somewhat.  Add items about the network turnarounds for
    pserver authentication and for protocol negotiation.

Mon Apr 21 08:54:48 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Working directory storage): Describe what to do
    with Entries.Log in more detail.

    * cvsclient.texi (Responses): Say "CVS 1.9 and earlier" rather
    than "pre version 1.10".  The latter increases confusion by
    referring to a version which doesn't exist yet.

Mon Apr 21 01:02:53 1997  Ian Lance Taylor  <[e-mail]>

    * cvsclient.texi (Responses): Document Rcs-diff.  Indicate that
    Patched is now deprecated in favor of Rcs-diff.

Sun Apr 20 23:42:03 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Working directory storage): Add note about format
    of timestamp and the "Result of merge" concept.

Sat Apr 19 13:42:33 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvsclient.texi (Responses): It is OK for Copy-file to implement
    a rename instead of a copy.

Fri Apr 18 12:05:48 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Assigning revisions): Say that -r implies -f.

Thu Apr 17 16:34:14 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (From other version control systems): Add comment
    about CMZ and PATCHY.

Wed Apr 16 12:35:25 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvsclient.texi (Responses): Add paragraph describing how
    Copy-file relates to Merged.
    (Responses): Add paragraph about how it is the server which
    worries about not clobbering the user's file.

Tue Apr 15 00:57:31 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * RCSFILES: Add notes on keyword expansion.

    * cvs.texinfo (Rename by copying): Comment out seemingly erroneous
    text regarding the revision number that the new file starts with.

Mon Apr 14 12:37:35 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Clients should try to send
    notifications right away.

    * cvsclient.texi (Requests): For Notify request, clarify a few
    future expansion situations.  Specify the format of the time.

    * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Clarify that arguments to co, rdiff,
    and rtag are module names (and how that differs from file/directory
    names).

    * cvsclient.texi (Responses): Say that servers need to create
    directories one at a time.

Sat Apr 12 09:32:58 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Committing your changes): Say that editor default
    is notepad (not vi) for Windows NT/95.  Be more clear about what
    "cvs commit" does.  Add paragraph about timestamps.
    (Environment variables, Global options, editinfo):
    Add xrefs to that node.

Thu Apr 10 15:48:39 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Error messages): Add "could not patch; will refetch".

Wed Apr  9 15:21:11 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Working directory storage): New node.

    * cvs.texinfo (Error messages): Add comment about "cvs co ." on
    NT.

Tue Apr  8 14:44:26 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Error messages): Add diff3 usage message.

Sun Apr  6 19:03:01 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Removing files): Add comment about undoing a "cvs
    remove".

    * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Explicitly mention the idea of
    deferring "Notify" requests.

Tue Apr  1 07:51:38 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvsclient.texi (Responses): Add paragraph about directory
    creation and empty directories.

    * cvs.texinfo (Binary files): Add comment about binary files and
    merges.

    * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Add discussion of when to send
    Is-modified.

    * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Sending Is-modified is enough to
    prevent the file from being considered "lost".

Sun Mar 30 00:31:47 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Add Is-modified request.  Clarify
    order of Entry relative to Unchanged or Is-modified (might as well
    specify the same thing vis-a-vis Modified while we are at it).

Sat Mar 29 12:32:40 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvsclient.texi: Change "newline" to "linefeed".  Most of the
    document already reads "linefeed" and that is what is intended.
    (File transmissions): New node, moved here from Requests.
    (Goals, Filenames, File transmissions, new node Strings): Add
    discussion of character sets and what we expect from the transport
    protocol we run on.

    * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Add paragraph about each Directory
    request specifying a new local-directory and repository.

    * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Add paragraph about renaming
    local-directory in Directory request.  Use "local-directory"
    consistently instead of "working directory", for clarity.

Fri Mar 28 13:59:59 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Make it clear that there is no
    guarantee that one will get Clear-sticky instead of another
    response.  Also clarify that clients will tend to store the
    repository in a long-term way.

    * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Further clarify Directory example.

    * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Add example and further explanation
    of what expand-modules is for.

    * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Add example, hopefully making it
    clearer what REPOSITORY and LOCAL-DIRECTORY mean to Directory.

    * cvs.texinfo (Attic): New node.
    (rtag options): Adjust discussion of -a accordingly.
    (Repository files): Adjust accordingly.

Thu Mar 27 09:57:05 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Error messages): Give exact wording of broken pipe
    error message.

    * cvs.texinfo (history database): Add comment about various
    problems with the history file.

    * cvs.texinfo (Common options): The ISO8601 web page we had
    mentioned in a comment is no more.  Replace it with a new one.

    * cvs.texinfo (Common options): "cvs history" also outputs dates.

Wed Mar 26 10:54:21 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Common options): "cvs editors" also outputs dates.

    * cvs.texinfo (Outside): Fix paragraph which said that revision
    numbers start at 1.0.  First of all, it is 1.1.  Second of all, it
    is sometimes 2.1, 3.1, etc.  Third of all, the xref should be to
    Assigning revisions not commit options.

    * cvs.texinfo (Outside): Comment out sentence which incorrectly
    stated that "cvs add" can operate on "foo/bar.c".

Tue Mar 25 22:21:29 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Error messages): New node.
    (Magic branch numbers): Move from Troubleshooting to Revisions and
    branches.  The former placement never made any sense to me.
    (Revision numbers): Remove "Main trunk (intro)" index entry now
    that this node is right next to the other "main trunk" index
    entry.
    (BUGS): Very briefly mention reporting bugs in CVS.

    * cvs.texinfo (Compatibility): Add comment about "Nfoo" in CVS/Tag.

Mon Mar 24 13:50:24 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Creating a branch): Add comment about -r in branch
    example.

    * cvsclient.texi (Responses): Discuss meaning of tagspec and
    future expansion in Set-sticky.  The behavior described is the one
    which CVS has always implemented.

Fri Mar 21 14:19:05 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Revise meaning of "Case" per change
    to CVS.

Tue Mar 18 15:50:47 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    The following reorganization hopefully presents numeric revisions
    in a slightly more coherent fashion.  The only new material is the
    paragraph about assigning revisions for added files.
    * cvs.texinfo (A sample session): Bring in a sentence from Basic
    concepts node, defining a repository.
    (Revisions and branches): Renamed from Branches (it has always
    covered non-branch tags too).  Bring in nodes "Revision numbers" and
    "Versions revisions releases" from Basic concepts, the former in
    particular was way too detailed for an intro section.
    (A sample session): Add comment about how we need an introduction
    and what might go into one.  Also bring in the paragraph from
    Basic concepts introducing modules, but comment it out.
    (Viewing differences): Add comment about
    (Basic concepts): Removed; its content has been farmed out as
    described above, and as the comment said, it was fundamentally
    flawed.
    (Assigning revisions): New node.  Incorporates the "New major
    release number" subsubsec which was in "commit examples".  Add
    paragraph concerning how CVS assigns revisions on added files.
    (commit options): Refer to that node under -r.
    (Invoking CVS): Add comment about text for -r.

Tue Mar 18 13:04:30 1997  Jim Meyering  <[e-mail]>

    * Makefile.in: (install-info): Depend on installdirs.

Sun Mar 16 12:37:12 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (File permissions): CVSUMASK now works for RCS
    files; but it is (still) awkward for client/server CVS.

Sat Mar 15 17:41:12 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Magic branch numbers): Add comment about where this
    should go.

Thu Mar 13 09:11:36 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Credits): Fix grammatical mistake ("manual about"
    -> "manual is about").  Reported by Philippe De Muyter.

Sun Mar  9 09:06:40 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (File permissions): Add comment about val-tags and
    CVSUMASK.

Sun Mar  2 12:33:26 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (From scratch): Add comment about creating
    directories with add rather than import.

    * cvs.texinfo (Creating a repository): Add comment about how this
    somewhat duplicates Server requirements.

    * cvs.texinfo (Connecting via rsh): Add comment about rsh
    vs. remsh.  Also wording fix ("incorrect" -> "inapplicable").

    * cvs.texinfo (Outside): Add comment about renames and annotate.

    * cvs.texinfo (Server requirements): New node.

Thu Feb 27 15:20:49 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Multiple developers): Reword section on "cvs admin
    -l".  As nearly as I can tell based on when it came up on info-cvs
    and other contexts, people who are into reserved checkouts
    generally find that cvs admin -l is OK.  Add a bunch more notes
    (inside @ignore) about reserved checkout implementation ideas.

Sun Feb 23 16:12:03 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Common options): Add various additional comments
    about date formats.

    * RCSFILES: Remove diff for Id and explain it in words instead.
    The previous values for Id had been clobbered by keyword expansion
    on the RCSFILES file itself.

Sat Feb 22 14:16:28 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * Makefile.in (DISTFILES): Fix typo (missing backslash).

Fri Feb 21 23:08:38 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * RCSFILES: New file.
    * Makefile.in (DISTFILES): Add RCSFILES.

20 Feb 1997  Lenny Foner  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Checklist): Fix typo ("keword" -> "keyword").

Thu Feb 20 21:57:05 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Keeping a checked out copy): Add "web" to index.

Wed Feb 12 18:44:16 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Password authentication client, Invoking CVS):
    Document "cvs logout" command.

Tue Feb 11 20:42:45 1997  Ian Lance Taylor  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (commit options): Document that the -f option to
    commit disables recursion.

Sun Feb  9 13:58:59 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (diff options): Document all the options we pass
    through to diff.  Remove paragraph about -D sometimes meaning
    --ifdef since that is no longer true.

    * cvs.texinfo (Multiple developers): Add lengthy comment about
    reserved checkout design issues.

    * cvs.texinfo (Wrappers): Add paragraph about timestamps.

    * cvs.texinfo (commit options): Don't try to document what CVS 1.3
    does with -f and how recent versions differ: 1.3 is pretty old
    anyway, we generally only try to document the current version, and
    the way it was described here was pretty confusing.
    (Environment variables): Likewise for CVSEDITOR.

    * cvs.texinfo (import output): Add index entries for symbolic
    links.  Add brief mention of whether behavior should be
    different.  Add comments on other symbolic link issues.

Wed Feb  5 13:02:37 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Concurrency): Add comment about commit/commit
    atomicity.

Mon Feb  3 10:55:41 1997  joel boutros <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Connecting via rsh): Fix typo (programs -> problems).

Fri Jan 31 12:18:47 1997  Ian Lance Taylor  <[e-mail]>

    * cvsclient.texi (Connection and Authentication): Correct typo
    (``sent'' for ``send''), and rewrite sentence for clarity.

Fri Jan 24 10:31:57 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (File status): Change "Unresolved Conflict" to "File
    had conflicts on merge" per change to CVS.

Sun Jan 19 16:21:17 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (admin): Add comments about "group" and "compiled in
    value".  At least one info-cvs poster was confused by this.

Thu Jan 16 17:54:51 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Wrappers): It is just -t/-f which doesn't work
    client/server.  -k *does* (well, except for the problem with
    import noted in BUGS).  -m I don't know and I doubt anyone cares.

Mon Jan 13 15:41:02 1997  Karl Fogel  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Read-only access): rephrase to imply that there may
        be other administrative files, besides history and locks, which
        read-only users can also affect (in the future, for example, the
        `passwd' file).

Wed Jan  8 14:50:47 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * Makefile.in: Remove CVSid; we decided to get rid
    of these some time ago.

Wed Jan  8 09:08:36 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvsclient.texi (Connection and Authentication): Document
    restriction that cvs root sent in the cvs protocol and in the
    pserver authentication protocol must be identical.

Thu Jan  2 13:30:56 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * Makefile.in, cvs.texinfo: Remove "675" paragraph;
    see ../ChangeLog for rationale.

Thu Jan  2 09:34:51 1997  Karl Fogel  <[e-mail]>

        * cvs.texinfo (Read-only access): new node.
        (Repository): new menu item for above new node.
        (Password authentication server): document the user-aliasing
        feature.  Why was this undocumented before?

Wed Jan  1 18:12:11 1997  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Conflicts example): Use @asis in example to prevent
    starting a line with a conflict marker.  This means that when
    maintaining the file with CVS itself, CVS will not think there is
    a conflict merely because of the conflict marker in the example.
    IMHO, this is totally bogus and CVS needs a better way of figuring
    out whether a conflict is resolved (see comments elsewhere in this
    node), but until then....  Credit to Fred Fish for reporting the
    problem.

    * cvs.texinfo (cvsignore): Add paragraph about how .cvsignore
    files in the sources being imported by "cvs import" override
    "-I !".  Credit goes to Fred Fish for pointing out this problem.

Thu Dec 19 12:36:46 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Credits): Update Roland Pesch email address per his
    request.

Tue Dec 17 12:57:56 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (verifymsg): In example, remove text "and reedit if
    necessary"; it was copied from editinfo and doesn't apply here.
    Fix syntax of if statement; remove unnecessary attempt at loop;
    don't use -n with echo.  Add @appendixsec at start of node.
    Add note about how verifymsg cannot change log message.
    (editinfo): In paragraph saying editinfo is obsolete, fix various
    typos and formatting glitches.  Mention -e as well as EDITOR.
    (editinfo): In saying that editinfo doesn't get consulted with -m,
    -F or client/server, recommend verifymsg.  Remove comment which
    says, in effect, "we need a feature like verifymsg".
    (editinfo example): Change "verifymsg" back to "editinfo" here;
    the example is of editinfo not verifymsg.

Tue Dec 17 12:45:32 1996  Abe Feldman  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (verifymsg): New node.
    various places: Say that editinfo is obsolete, or refer to
    verifymsg instead of editinfo

Wed Dec 11 08:55:26 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Compatibility): Add comment about 1.3 and file death.

    * cvs.texinfo (update output, release output): Document "P" as
    well as "U".

Tue Dec 10 16:23:40 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Builds): Change "make" to "implement" and "build";
    in this context "make" is ambiguous.
    (Builds): Add new URL of mk web page.

Mon Dec  9 11:03:37 1996  Jim Blandy  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Password authentication client, Environment
    variables): Remove mention of CVS_PASSWORD.

Sun Dec  8 22:38:34 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Repository files): Mention differences between RCS
    files in RCS and in CVS.
    (Tags): Tag names must start with a letter.

Fri Dec  6 09:08:18 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (syntax): Expand discussion of regular expression
    syntax.

Fri Nov 29 09:06:41 1996  [e-mail] (Fred Fish)
              and Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo, cvsclient.texi: Make sure @ref and friends are
    followed by "," or "." as described in the texinfo manual.  This
    is a dubious practice as texi2html and texinfo.tex don't require
    it, and makeinfo could insert them as needed, but since makeinfo
    doesn't do that yet, cope.

    * cvs.texinfo (From files): Suggest "diff -r" rather than "ls -R"
    as the way to see that the sources seem to have been imported
    correctly.
    (Common options): -k is also available with import.
    (admin options): Fix typo ("interrested" -> "interested").

Mon Nov 25 10:03:56 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Common options): Add comments about two digit
    years, year 2000, and ambiguous/nonexistent dates.

Sun Nov 24 17:27:24 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (First import): Don't say what the wdiff program we
    are using as an example does--that is confusing.  Also don't show
    untarring it--people might be familiar with cpio, ZIP, VMS BACKUP,
    etc., instead of tar.

    * cvs.texinfo (Adding files): Update comment about "cvs add -m".

    * cvs.texinfo (Common options): Remove -H; -H is not a command
    option.
    (Global options): Also list --help and --version.  Don't say that
    -H gives a list of commands; it doesn't any more (directly).

    * cvs.texinfo: Add comment pointing to paper size web page.

    * cvs.texinfo (Common options): Rewrite section on date formats.
    Executive summary is that RFC822 and ISO8601 are now preferred.

Wed Nov 20 08:39:45 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Getting Notified): Add paragraph clarifying that
    watches happen per user, not per working directory.

Tue Nov 19 09:39:08 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Tags): Suggest that future special tag names might
    start with ".".  Fix typo.

    * cvs.texinfo (Removing directories): -P is also available with
    export.
    (Moving directories): Rewrite first paragraph; now says that you
    must use -P for the directory to disappear from working
    directories.  Thanks to Martin Lorentzon
    <[e-mail]> for reporting this bug.
    (various): Where we mention -P, point to Removing directories
    node.

Sat Nov 16 18:03:22 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvsclient.texi (Example): Rewrite to actually be based on a real
    live example (and therefore reflect the way the protocol currently
    works).  Add comment about formatting of the document itself.

Thu Nov 14 10:22:58 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvsclient.texi (Introduction): Use @ref, not @xref, after "see".
    (Goals): Rewrite items about locking, about uploading in big
    chunks, and about atomicity to be focused more on the protocol
    than the current implementation.
    (Notes): Remove this node.  The attempt to describe the basic
    model has pretty much been replaced by the Introduction.
    The material about how to start the client is incomplete and
    better left to cvs.texinfo.  And the item about the lack of
    SERVER_FLOWCONTROL is obsolete now that SERVER_FLOWCONTROL is the
    default.
    (Protocol Notes): Add comment about multisite features.
    (Requirements): Use @code for requests and responses.

    * cvs.texinfo (Remote repositories): Add a few sentences defining
    "client" and "server"; before we had been using the terms without
    defining them.

    * cvs.texinfo (What is CVS?): Add paragraph about reporting bugs.
    Reword and expand comp.software.config-mgmt description (and add
    comments about other newsgroup facts).  Point people at GNU list
    of FTP sites rather than directly at prep.ai.mit.edu.

Wed Nov  6 09:45:08 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Tracking sources): Add comment regarding added and
    removed files.

Tue Nov  5 14:00:31 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo: Rename node "Invoking CVS" to "CVS commands".
    Rewrite the intro and comments to reflect addition of the new
    Invoking CVS.
    (Invoking CVS): New node, a quick summary of each command.
    (annotate): Don't list the options; refer to Invoking CVS and
    Common options instead.

Sun Nov  3 21:22:42 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Compatibility): New node, moved from ../README.

    * cvs.texinfo (Common options): Add comment about how tar manual
    contains documentation for getdate date formats.

Fri Nov  1 14:00:31 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (commit examples): Rewrite "New major release
    number" section to tighten up the wording, better motivate the
    discussion, and replace the term "rcs revision number" with
    "numeric revision".

Fri Oct 25 07:49:21 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (loginfo): Don't say "a la printf"; the syntax is
    only vaguely similar to printf.

    * cvs.texinfo (loginfo): To get just the repository name, suggest
    %{} instead of % "standing alone"; the latter is now an error.

Tue Oct 22 13:08:54 1996  Noel Cragg  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (loginfo): add information on the new loginfo format
     string specification.

Mon Oct 21 17:33:44 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Builds): New node.
    (What is CVS?): Refer to it.

Sat Oct 19 14:32:21 1996  Jim Meyering <[e-mail]>
              and Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Choosing a model): Wording/grammar fix.

Sat Oct 19 14:32:21 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvsclient.texi (Obsolete): New node.
    (Requests): Remove Repository and Lost and adjust Directory,
    UseUnchanged, and other places accordingly.
    (Required): Directory and Unchanged are now required.

    * cvs.texinfo (Removing files): Don't talk about modules; they are
    not relevant in this context.
    (Removing directories): New node.
    (Common options): Refer to it instead of duplicating information.

Fri Oct 18 11:05:06 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (First import, import): Add paragraph about the fact
    that import doesn't modify the directory which it imports from.

    * cvs.texinfo (Creating a repository): Add paragraph about
    resource requirements.

    * cvs.texinfo (Copying): Replace empty node with a copy of the GPL.

Thu Oct 17 12:10:55 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    reflect the functioning/nonfunctioning status of cvs add -m.

    * cvs.texinfo (Reverting local changes): New node, somewhat based
    on the version of this node from 30 Sep 96 change.
    (admin options): Refer to it.

    * cvs.texinfo: Reinstate 30 Sep 96 change from A4 to US letter.

    * cvs.texinfo (Concurrency): When telling people how to clean up
    locks, tell them to make sure the locks are owned by the person
    who has the stale locks.
    (update output, release output): Remove text about how CVS doesn't
    print "? foo" for directories; CVS has since been changed (see
    conflicts-130 in sanity.sh).

Wed Oct 16 15:01:42 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (history options): Mention new option -x E.

Mon Oct 14 15:21:25 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Tags): Add paragraph on choosing a convention for
    naming tags.

Thu Oct 10 16:05:26 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (modules): Describe what & does.

Mon Oct  7 17:20:11 1996  Ian Lance Taylor  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Removing files): Correct apparent cut and paste
    error: refer to the removed file, not the added file.

Tue Oct  1 14:15:33 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo: Revert all recent changes (the last unscathed one
    is the CVSUMASK one from Sunday).  For the most part said changes
    are for new features which are not appropriate at this stage of
    the release process.  None of the changes being reverted need to
    go into 1.9, that is for sure.

Mon Sep 30 18:17:34 1996  Greg A. Woods  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Credits): add comment asking if we should update.
    Add more detail about printing Letter on A4.
    Add some comments about internal comments.
    (From files): describe "cvs import -b 1" for importing existing
    projects onto the main branch.
    (First import): add a couple of helpful hints about naming vendor
    and release tags, etc., and regularize the examples with this.
    (Tracking sources): noted some reasons why you might use vendor
    branches with "cvs import".
    (Update imports): mention using "update" in place of "checkout" if
    you have an existing working directory.
    (Binary files in imports): add sub-menu separator comment.
    (Tracking sources): new menu entry "Reverting to vendor release".
    (Reverting to vendor release): new node to describe reverting
    local changes and optionally using patch(1) to move local changes
    forward.
    (Global options): describe -D and -g, as well as DIFFBIN and
    GREPBIN.
    (export examples): add one.
    (import options): describe the effect of '-b 1'.

Mon Sep 30 08:09:53 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo: Adjust comments concerning A4 vs. US letter,
    referring to ../README.

    * cvs.texinfo (Common options): Add comment about dates which CVS
    uses in output.

Sun Sep 29 11:14:16 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Keyword list): Don't mention Name twice.

    * cvs.texinfo (File permissions): Expand CVSUMASK stuff a bit.
    (Setting a watch, Environment variables, Global options): Update
    index entries for "read-only files, and ...".

    * cvsclient.texi (Requests): State that Gzip-stream is preferred
    to gzip-file-contents.  Cite RFC1952/1951 rather than just "gzip".
    Say that RFC1950/1951 compression is also known as "zlib".

Sat Sep 28 09:31:45 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Repository): Move all information about the
    internal structure of the repository to User modules node.  Rename
    it to "Repository storage" ("User modules" wasn't particularly
    clear).  Mention CVSUMASK.  Much clarification and
    reorganization.
    (Basic concepts): Remove material which duplicates what is now in
    Repository.  Rewrite paragraph introducing modules.

    * cvs.texinfo (Starting a new project): In discussing difficulty
    in renaming files, don't refer to "cvs 1.x"--there is no
    non-vaporous "cvs 2.x".  Reword to reflect that part of the reason
    to avoid renames (where possible) is not because of CVS at all, and
    to try to give a general impression of how bad CVS issues involved in
    renaming are.

Fri Sep 27 04:23:44 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Adding files): Talk about directories, not modules,
    since that is what is meant.  Suggest using -kb option to add
    rather than running cvs admin after the fact and xref to Binary
    files not admin examples.  Incorporate information which had been
    in "add" node (there was a lot of duplication).  Don't document
    use of "add" on a directory to take the place of "cvs update -d";
    the latter is simpler and more logical.
    (add, add options, add examples): Removed.
    (release output, release options): Update xrefs accordingly.
    (Adding files, Removing files): Mention the fact that adds and
    removes are branch-specific.
    (Merging adds and removals): New node.

    * cvs.texinfo (Concurrency): When mentioning RCS locks, use the
    term reserved checkouts and xref to the place where we discuss
    them in more depth.

Thu Sep 26 08:26:01 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (log): Add comments about timezones.
    (log, Common options): Add index entries for timezone and zone, time.

Wed Sep 25 11:05:30 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (log options): Add xref to where we describe the
    date formats that -d accepts.
    (Common options): Don't refer to date formats accepted by co(1);
    CVS's rules have never been the same.  Add long whiny comment
    about what a mess date formats are.

Tue Sep 24 11:49:02 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (From other version control systems): The RCS file
    must not be locked when you copy it to the CVS repository.

    * cvs.texinfo (Editing files): Also discuss how to revert in the
    non-watch case.  Add some index entries.

    * cvs.texinfo (update output): Add comment about how we *should*
    be handling .# files.  Mention fact that it is different under
    VMS.  Add .# to index.

Fri Sep 20 13:08:33 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Multiple developers): Revise text on reserved
    versus unreserved checkouts extensively.  Move index entries for
    "reserved checkouts" and "RCS-style locking" to here.  Add
    cross-reference to cvs admin -l.  Add new section "Choosing a
    model".
    (Editing files): Add note about use of the word "checkout".

Tue Sep 17 00:54:57 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Defining the module): Don't suggest "cvs co
    modules"; that depends on a "modules" module being defined which
    is not the default which is created by "cvs init".  Instead
    suggest "cvs co CVSROOT/modules" which should always work.

Tue Sep 17 00:43:49 1996  VaX#n8  <[e-mail]>
              and Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Rename by copying): Suggest "cvs tag -d" on the file
    "new", not on everything.  Also don't suggest deleting branch tags.

Tue Sep 17 00:34:39 1996  David A. Swierczek  <[e-mail]>

    * Makefile.in (install-info): Note whether files are in srcdir and
    deal with it rather than cd'ing into srcdir.

Mon Sep 16 23:33:36 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Wrappers): Add comment about using wrappers to
    compress files in the repository.

    * cvs.texinfo (modules): Add comments about how we should be
    documenting how -i and friends operate in client/server CVS.

    * cvs.texinfo (File permissions): Describe the need for write
    permissions for locks and val-tags.

    * cvs.texinfo (commitinfo): Add comment about using commitinfo to
    enforce who has access.

Wed Jul 24 17:01:41 1996  Larry Jones  <[e-mail]>
              and Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (checkout): Refer to "update output" node.
    (import): Add new import output node.
    (release): Correct release output menu entry (used to be
    release options instead).
    (update output): Say this is output from checkout as well as
    update.

    * cvs.texinfo (Common options): Clarify that CVS uses MM/DD/YY dates.

    * cvs.texinfo (Common options): Add comment about what HEAD means.

Sat Sep 14 10:46:58 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Keeping a checked out copy): New node.

Fri Sep 13 23:55:42 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Magic branch numbers): Delete song and dance about
    how cvs log can't cope with magic branches because rlog doesn't
    know about them; cvs log no longer calls rlog.  Delete item about
    how you can't specify a symbolic branch to cvs log; that is fixed.

Wed Sep 11 22:48:21 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Password authentication server): Add comments
    regarding port numbers and troubleshooting.

Tue Sep 10 10:36:00 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    to avoid overfull hbox.

    * cvs.texinfo (Binary files): Add comment about further issues
    with recovering from failure to use -kb.

    * cvs.texinfo (Conflicts example): Describe the "feature" by which
    CVS won't check in files with conflicts.
    (File status): Expand and revise to document all the possible
    statuses from cvs status.  Also document "Working revision" and
    "Repository revision".  Refer to other sections for other aspects
    of cvs status.
    (status options): Refer to other sections as appropriate.
    (update output): Refer user to Conflicts example node.  Add
    comment regarding purging of .# files.

    --enable-encryption option in order to use encryption.
    (Global options): Likewise, in description of -x option.

Thu Sep  5 14:31:42 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Connecting via rsh): Discuss :ext:, :server:, and
    CVS_RSH.
    (Remote repositories): Mention what default is if no access method
    is specified.
    (Environment variables): Don't discuss CVS_RSH at length here;
    rely on reference to "Connecting via rsh" node.

Mon Aug 26 15:39:18 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvsclient.texi (Protocol Notes): When talking about having the
    client know the original contents of files, suggest cvs edit as a
    solution.

    * cvs.texinfo (Keyword list): Document Name keyword.

    Kerberos-encrypt).

Wed Jul 24 18:53:13 1996  Ian Lance Taylor  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Kerberos authenticated): Change the note that the
    Kerberos connection is not encrypted.

    * cvsclient.texi (Protocol Notes): Remove enhancement note about
    Kerberos encryption.
    (Requests): Add documentation for Kerberos-encrypt request.

Thu Jul 18 18:27:40 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Creating a repository): Mention need to be able to
    create lock files in the repository.

    * cvsclient.texi (Responses): In F response, make at least a
    minimal attempt to define "flush".

    * cvs.texinfo (Wrappers): Document -k.
    (From files, Binary files in imports): Say that imports can deal
    with binary files and refer to Wrappers node for details.
    (Binary files): Likewise for imports and adds.

Sat Jul 13 18:29:10 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Binary files): Add paragraph concerning the fact

Fri Sep 13 10:52:09 1996  Greg A. Woods  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo: don't force afourpaper -- Letter prints much better
    on A4 than the other way around, believe you me!
     (rdiff options): describe -k and new -K.
    (RCS keywords): add description of $Name.
    (Using keywords): add description of #ident and example of using

    the meaning of "any other" data, in the conflict field.

    regarding ways in which the example is out of date or wrong.

              and Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

Fri Jun  7 16:59:47 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (Invoking CVS): Add comment describing why only some
    commands are listed here.
    (Structure, Environment variables): Don't describe CVS as a
    front-end to RCS.

Tue Jun  4 21:19:42 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvsclient.texi (Responses): Document Created and Update-existing.

    * cvsclient.texi (Responses): Clarify "diff -c" versus "diff -u"
    format in Patched response.  Don't specify how the client must
    implement its patch-applying functionality.

Sun May 26 17:12:24 1996  Norbert Kiesel  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo (tag options) Document option "-c".

    * cvs.texinfo (Credits): Rewrite section on FAQ to reflect the
    fact that FAQ is no longer maintained.
    (What is CVS?): Mention comp.software.config-mgmt as well as
    info-cvs.  Mention the fact that info-cvs-request can be slow in
    responding.
    (What is CVS?): Rather than say that cvs is not a configuration
    mangement system, say specifically what it lacks (change control,
    etc.).  I added process control (which was sorely lacking from the
    list of configuration management functionality), and deleted some
    functions such as tape construction which are not provided by the
    well-known configuration management systems.

    * cvs.texinfo (checkout options): Add comment regarding
    subdirectories (lack of clarity pointed out by [e-mail]).
    Add comment about that infernal "short as possible" wording.

    * cvs.texinfo (Global options): Fix error ("diff" -> "log")
    (reported by [e-mail]).
    Remove footnote "Yes, this really should be fixed, and it's being

    working on it.

Tue May 21 17:22:18 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Clarify Directory with "." as local

    [all for the sake of consistency]

Fri May 17 11:42:46 1996  Jim Kingdon  <[e-mail]>

    * cvs.texinfo: Add index entries for :local:, etc.

    * cvsclient.texi (Notes): Removed paragraphs about various server
     invocations which are now described in full in node "Connection
     and Authentication."
    (Requests): Include a note that "gzip-file-contents" doesn't
     follow the upper/lowercase convention and that unknown reqests
     always elicit a response, regardless of capitalization.

     number.
