The "Tagged" lines are something that change from file to file which, when diffing causes producing output and sometimes conflists, when the line is updated by the system. It would be overall cleaner if the distributed /etc files do not contain any version control information. The motivation is that they are part of the territory of the system administarator. Minimalism is better. Jari -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
