importing files: CVS

[KM]

I haven't created a repository from scratch in a long time.   I created the repository and the CVSROOT files are done.   I imported a directory and it creates a branch from the vendor branch field I passed.  the version numbers are 1.1.1.1.    I don't remember this happening in the past, but as I've said it's been a long time.

when I do a checkout i expected the trunk/HEAD and to see 1.1 versioning.  I am doing this correctly?  Do i need to switch to the HEAD or checkout the HEAD to see them as 1.1.

Hope it all makes sense.  Thanks
KM

Hi KM,

Everything is working as designed.

The first time you make a change to one of the 1.1.1.1 version files and
commit it, the new version will be version 1.2. Another import will
create 1.1.1.2 which will NOT be on the HEAD until you merge it.

This is just how vendor branches work.

Be safe, stay healthy,

Hi KM,

this is all correct.

Vendor branch 1.1.1 first import gets version number 1.1.1.1
which is aliased to 1.1 (so when you commit you get 1.2),
and HEAD is just the latest revision on the MAIN branch,
that is, 1.1 by default.
