Well, it could be possible to do a cvs log of all files with the latest RELEASE tag and then look for the current head of each file listed....but this is a PITA and of course wouldn't work for anything not in PEAR's CVS. With monotone this would be easy. ;-) Just check the head vs the tag for the release and see if the revisions hashes map. With svn this could also be pretty easy. Keep a tag of each revision and compare the tag's creation rev vs the last comitted rev for the package. -- Justin Patrin
