    CVS woes
    
   
    
     While upgrading the OSAF infrastructure we got a newer version of CVS.  The version is so new that it doesn't work with the default version of CVS provided with MacOS X.  So this afternoon I took a detour to grab a copy of CVS 1.12.3 (later even than what is Finkable), and install it.  The first attempt was abortive because I tried to build the HEAD of the CVS CVS.  After that I gave up and downloaded a tarball and built that instead.   I don't understand why the CVS guys keep breaking stuff like this (or why Apple isn't keeping CVS up to date in Panther -- you get 1.10 which is just too old).   I did get subversion installed on my Debian box at home and I Finked a client for the powerbook, so perhaps in the next few days you'll get a report on that.

       FYI, I heard on ruby-talk that as of earlier this week the svn client in Fink is broken.

       It is now some time ago I read about this new freaky completely distributed revision control system  Arch  implemented as a set of shell scripts. But that was then. Now it's been reimplemented in C and the frontend isn't called  larch , but  tla .
