Re: Several tags around PostgreSQL 7.1 broken

I had originally sent this mail in April, but it appears to have been blocked
because the attachment was too large.

While we are in the process of dealing with CVS-Git conversion, we should also
apply this fixup to make the CVS repository more sane.

Could someone with write access to the repository files apply this patch?

Here is a patch to bring the REL7_1 tag in line with the released tarball.

The cvsps errors with the REL7_1_BETA* tags appear to be of a different
nature. I haven't been able to fix those yet.

*PLEASE* I'll cry again, loudly...

If somebody's doing this type of operation on the CVS replo, please warn
is (I'll consider this warning) *AND STOP RSYNC/ANONCVS ACCESS* around
the operation....

*PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE*

Note that this change doesn't even "fix" the broken CVS history tags;
the REL7_1_BETA[23] tags are the ones that are actually inconsistent.

Note that I'm pausing the CVS->GIT conversion until I hear that the
repository is stable again...

Has this gone anywhere? Is the CVS repo safe yet?

Nothing has been done about this.

So, what's the concensus. Are we(you,everybody?) going to leave the CVS
repo alone, or is someone going to muck around in it? If someone's
planning to muck around in it, are we all going to get a day or two of
warning?
