Re: CVS support

[Bucky Junior]

Joe,

I'm not going to be able to offer any suggestions. Sorry. In the latest BBEdit 10.5 in beta, menu support for CVS seems to be going by the wayside in favor of subversion. You might consider making the switch to that versioning system.

I'm sure if you searched the BBEdit List archives on google, <https://accounts.google.com/ServiceLogin?service=groups2&passive=1209600&continue=http://groups.google.com/group/bbedit&followup=http://groups.google.com/group/bbedit&authuser=0>, you might be able to find some other users working with CVS and how they are dealing with CVS and the change.

Again, I apologize for not being any help at all.
