I suspect it can, Yes, there would not be a change in that - there is no simple way around = that with current infrastructure (as fixing that wold mean doing evil = hacks around cvs etc.) The only thing you would gain by using cvsup-master to pull sources is = lower lag time between what tinderboxes build and what's in src/ VCS. > in which case syncing directly off the SVN master would seem a better > approach. Better yes, but that's not a simple configuration change like switching = to using cvsup-master is, and unfortunately I have plenty of more = interesting projects than changing tinderbox code :-). PS. for other people not being Peter Jeremy :) - no, I'm not going to = consider git or going to consider discussing it - see above :-). --=20 Simon L. B. Nielsen
