Re: Texinfo 5.x and the packages

Here is what I would like to do:
- Apply this patch, which touches a number of packages
- Apply another patch that re-expands CVS keywords to the values they had in
the final state of our CVS repository.
- Apply a patch that renames all .cvsignore files to .hgignore.
Fine by me.
Since .hgignore files default to regular expression syntax and
the existing .cvsignore files use glob syntax, it will also be
necessary to either add a leading "syntax: glob" line to each
file, or manually convert each glob pattern to an equivalent
regular expression.
Prepend "syntax: glob\n" for heaven's sake! (Are you a masochist or
something?:-)
My question is how to handle version number bumps in the Makefile.
Each of these will be a separate commit, so they can be backed out
individually if necessary, but does each one need to bump version
numbers, or is a single bump at the end of the series good enough?
Bump author version numbers as appropriate in the final commit. Don't
push until that's done. Package versions are Norbert's property.
Backing out will require a version bump in general, so no reason to
worry about this.
