PATCH: GCC's wwwdocs/CVSROOT/modules

PATCH: GCC's wwwdocs/CVSROOT/modules

[Ben Elliston]

This seems like the most appropriate place to send this patch, but let
me know if not.

While looking through this repository's CVSROOT (trying to work out what
would be involved in getting the web pages under SVN source control), I
noticed that the modules file appeared to have been copied from the GCC
CVS repository at some stage.  None of it makes sense for the wwwdocs
repository and can be safely pruned.

OK to commit?

the modules file actually hasn't been copied from the GCC CVS repository, 
but we are looking at the original CVS repository, just that the only 
active thing there these days is the wwwdocs module. :-)

I believe this is fine to commit, but let's wait a day or two to see
whether anybody else has any objections/inputs.

And thanks for looking at the migration of the wwwdocs module.  As far as 
I can see, the key aspect to consider is the automated checkout following
changes being committed.

In hindsight, this should have been posted to gcc-patches.  Sorry to
overseers for the noise.

I didn't realise that wwwdocs was just a module in the gcc repository.
The problem with making any changes to the modules file is that the cvs
server always refers to the head revision of this file (although it _is_
versioned).  If anyone were to want to check out an old version of GCC
from CVS, they would need to roll back the modules file first to get the
module aliases they might need.

I was just suggesting the change as a cleanup. On reflection, I think
this change is not worth the effort.  

Cheers, Ben
