I noticed the same thing some time ago. This isn't a big problem |
| 16 |
though, as you can easily generate the same diffs from 2006.0 to 2006.1 |
| 17 |
by something like: |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
$ for f in 2006.0/*xml; do diff -Naur $f ${f/2006.0/2006.1}; done |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
in cvs/.../doc/en/handbook/ |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
I found that the easiest way to view actual changes since I hadn't |
| 24 |
tracked the changes in draft at all. |
