It's not really recommended to switch between -kb and -kB that much anyway (it works for when it's needed, but I wouldn't make a habit of it as the boundary condition is very slow to process). Deleting revisions in the middle of the history (again something that is rarely done) is just adding to complexity - there's no easy way of handling that, short of reconstructing the entire file from scratch. Add -kBz into the mix and it gets even more complex... Tony
