On the other hand, maybe I am confused. I was assuming that CVS was still the primary vehicle for managing glibc, and the git repository was just shadowing it. But I see that if I "git pull" and "cvs update" I get more recent changes in git than I do in CVS. So if I make my changes in git, should I ask someone to pull my tree (like how Linux is managed) or do I push my changes directly to the master git repository? I haven't used the latter workflow before, so if someone has some notes on what the right thing to do is, I'd appreciate it. Thanks! -- Chris Metcalf, Tilera Corp. http://www.tilera.com
