Are you saying you are going to make Revision numbers completely useless, instead of mostly useless, by taking away the ability to increment them manually? Everyone will have large and useless revisions like 1.231 and not be able to bump them up to 2.0? What possible reason could you have for breaking this behavior? John p.s. yes, I know that conventional wisdom was to not use Revision numbers as version numbers, but plenty of people do it. I've never seen a justification for that limitation. I use 'commit -r' and the '$Revision: $' construct all the time, and I can still walk upright...
