Because 7.4 had more parallel CVS branch changes than previous releases,
I decided to pull cvs logs based only on the CVS HEAD, so I didn't get
commits to branches.
I used this command:
cvs log -d'>2002-11-04 00:00:00 GMT' -rHEAD .
I then ran it through tools/pgcvslog and started working on the release
notes. About 75% through the list, I found that a Rendezvous commit was
missing. Looking at the cvs output, I saw that 'cvs log -rHEAD' pulls
only the HEAD (most recent) log commit for each file, rather than taking
the HEAD CVS branch.
I am going to have to start again from scratch tomorrow. Looking at the
rlog manual page, I now see the proper command is:
cvs log -d'>2002-11-04 00:00:00 GMT' -b . >/bjm/log
I have documented this in the pgcvslog script. This confusion is caused
because cvs is built on top of rcs, which has a different way of doing
things than CVS.
Once I am done, I have to run pgindent, and Tom wants to remove recode.
We just found that python shouldn't be in CVS. Let's look to Monday for
beta.
