Oh, yeah, sure. However, it's something of a pain, and often |
| 17 |
times |
| 18 |
its not very useful anyhow, when different ebuilds don't have |
| 19 |
a cvs changelog that is very useful. Think "new checkin" versus |
| 20 |
"fixed bug in -r1 causing foo to barf" |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
Incidentally, I find it interesting that gentoo is so |
| 23 |
python-based |
| 24 |
and yet uses cvsweb instead of viewcvs (IMHO, superior). |
