Hi, FYI, I had to adjust coreutils release procedure in a fundamental way, due to the switch to git. Before, "make alpha", "make beta", "make stable" applied the CVS release tag automatically. Now, I manually apply a signed git tag, and *then* run one of those make commands. _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list Bug-coreutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
