Great way to run a development program. Wrong. They have Larry McVoy's "BitKeeper", which addresses a number of the issues that result in the emergent property of forking in the BSD distributions deriving from the BSD distributions use of CVS. Bitkeeper is now publically available, so long as your change log (not including source, -- just comments) is visible on the web (or you buy a license). See http://www.bitkeeper.com/bk12.html for details. Terry Lambert terry@lambert.org --- Any opinions in this posting are my own and not those of my present or previous employers.
