Re: branching in packages?

"Ilya N. Golubev" <gin(a)mo.msk.ru&gt; That is why, for that particular package, the related traffic on xemacs-patches included the announcement that these tags would be available to help anyone needing the last version before the sync: pre-JJ-comint-sync post-JJ-comint-sync I agree that this is not a good general mechanism. However, it is also true that my sync of comint and shell with Emacs is not representative of package updates in general, so the related instabilities do not make a good general argument about the way in which the package tree is managed. If the new comint is causing you more grief than you are willing to put with, then please revert to the versions of comint and shell tagged pre-JJ-comint-sync. On the other hand, I want to repeat that your testing and bug reports have been very valuable, and I hope you will continue helping me iron out the remaining comint and shell bugs. -- Jerry James, Assistant Professor james(a)xemacs.org Computer Science Department http://www.cs.usu.edu/~jerry/ Utah State University
