Echoing and expanding on this, I do like the ISO date format better. However, this change shouldn't cause all kinds of "bogus" diffs to show up in "cvs diff"; i.e. things like:
diff -u -b -B -r1.9 param.h --- StreamedWatershedSegmentation/ParameterFileParser/param.h 8 Dec 2005 18:20:47 -0000 1.9 +++ StreamedWatershedSegmentation/ParameterFileParser/param.h 10 Jun 2008 03:40:03 -0000 @@ -3,7 +3,7 @@ Program: Insight Segmentation & Registration Toolkit Module: $RCSfile: param.h,v $ Language: C++ - Date: $Date: 2005-12-08 18:20:47 $ + Date: $Date: 2005/12/08 18:20:47 $ Version: $Revision: 1.9 $ Copyright (c) 2002 Insight Consortium. All rights reserved. Instead, this non-change should simply be suppressed. Clearly CVS is parsing the date in order to change the format. I'd suggest that these dates be simply compared as *dates* not strings. (In the meanwhile, I'll use the magic configuration.) Thanks, -Steve
