We've always spread the release CVS tags. It's the right thing to do.

    I'm talking about having a php_4_0_4 branch on
    cvs.zend.com. There is no precedence for that.

Sure there is. Before we run makedist we tag all three CVS trees.

    Well, tags are fine, as I said above. All I'm saying is that
    there is no precedence for extending the branch from
    cvs.php.net to other repositories (which is not surprising,
    as this is the first time we use branches here). I guess you
    think branches and tags are equal, which they are not.

They actual are very similar in CVS. Branches use a moving tag but I might be wrong.

Uhm it's a bug fix which needs to get into 4.0.4 and his whitespace fixes won't break anything. In any case, if you plan on manually applying it you need to go through it filtering out the whitespace patches in your brain :)

    I don't plan to apply it manually or to review obfuscated
    patches. I'd appreciate it though, if Zeev or someone else
    would post a patch containing only real changes, to give us a
    chance to review it, _before_ committing it to the php_4_0_4
    branch.

Whatever... I guess it's up to Zeev if he wants to start working on cleaning a diff or not. I had no problem looking at the commit he did in the main CVS tree. Andi --- Andi Gutmans <andi@zend.com> http://www.zend.com/
