I think that my approach is a bit faster: make lists with unique basenames. In the most common case, there will be only one list, I suspect. > - Parse the 'Repository revision:' line to find out what path on the > server matches our repo 'root'. I am not so sure. It _should_ be reconstructible by CVS/Repository + dirname + basename, but I guess that it makes us susceptible to other CVS breakages. Whereas I think that we will be fine, relying on the basename in the File: line. > > Thanks.

I always said that I like Perl, because it's easier to tell who's an expert, than for, say, Python. Unfortunately, that means that it is easy to see that I am not an expert myself :-( Ciao, Dscho - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
