CVSNT stores all the past revisions of each module using files on disk, including all tags, branch names, messages, options, etc. All those info goes on the repository dir and subdirs. You should back up those files regularly - do you??? In case the server crashes, and so badly that those files are corrupted, you must restore them from your backup - and lose just the commits made *after* the backup. If the repository files are OK, you don't lose anything. Gabriel Genellina Softlab SRL __________________________________________________ Preguntá. Respondé. Descubrí.
