It does seem a bit weird to > not have main development on HEAD. The lack of consistency regarding branch handling caused a lot of confusion in the developer base. Especially for those whose main project is not PHP. With a rigid mantra "Work on PHP X? Use PHP_X" this becomes much easier to follow. > Also would it be possible to alias php4 and php5 checkouts so they do the > right thing? Currently, that would mean selecting a branch and magically choosing the correct Zend Engine. I would _love_ to see the latter fixed. This however would require merging of the two CVS histories which is not that easy, to say the least. To be specific, I would like to see php-src-ze1 -d php-src php-src &Zend &TSRM php-src-ze2 -d php-src php-src &ze2-dir &TSRM being folded into one, with ZendEngine2 completely removed. - Sascha
