Hi all! |

This is a short reminder to urge you to use repoman to commit *all* |
| 4 |
changes you make to packages in our tree. With FEATURES="strict" portage |
| 5 |
will check the contents of Manifest against the files in the tree and will |
| 6 |
stop when a file listed in Manifest doesn't exist or has the wrong |
| 7 |
size/digest. This will make the package un-emergeable for our users if |
| 8 |
they have strict in FEATURES. |

|
| 10 |
repoman regenerates the Manifest after commiting the changed files. Some |
| 11 |
files include a $Header: $ or $Id: $ CVS keyword replacement that will |
| 12 |
change when the file is commited. If you just use cvs commit the Manifest |
| 13 |
will contain the size/digest of the old file with the old CVS keyword. If |
| 14 |
you remove some files, the Manifest will still list the removed files. So |
| 15 |
please use repoman for commiting to get the Manifest right. |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
I'm scanning the tree several times per day for broken Manifests and will |
| 18 |
try to notice every developer when he commits a broken Manifest. |
