Hey folks

I'm investigating why the SVN repo differs from what's on the release
CVS ISOs and of course you'll shout "CVS repo copies" but it would be
really helpful if there was a record of when in time the various
branches were created. Because SVN just ain't right.

Here's the pre-SVN stable and releng branch creations in SVN:

I think stable/5 being created after 5.2 is what actually happened
(IIRC), but 4.3 getting created after 4.7 and 4.11 predating 4.10 and
4.8 is highly bogus.

Is there a record of when these things actually happened? Do I need to
trawl through newvers.sh for all of these?

For example, in the releng/4.11 branch it gets first deleted, then
r138454 brings it back on 2004-12-06 14:39:45 (that's about 2.3 years
later)

Thanks
Uli
