I'd have assumed that both would just be tags, but obviously I'm missing something there... I think we branched the alphas so we could version-stamp them while keeping HEAD as "9.0devel". But when we switch to beta, we don't have a devel tree anymore, it's just beta and backbranches. -- Magnus Hagander Me: http://www.hagander.net/ Work: http://www.redpill-linpro.com/ -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers(a)postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers

I've wished for those to be available as well.

I might give it a shot. I can't promise anything, though - my ruby-fu is OK, but my cvs-fu is badly lacking... best regards, Florian Pflug -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers(a)postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers

(Personally I'm thinking that having stub branches for the alphas was a mistake too --- obviously, it's leading to confusion.) regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers(a)postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
