Given that branch reintegration is so dicey that I've ended up doing while [ 1 ]; do cleanup && revert && reintegrate && break; done , I think I'll use the Time Machine :) Michael -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
