The great unification has commenced.
There is now a single module php-src which contains all PHP 4 and PHP 5 branches.
BRANCH INFORMATION
Please make yourself familiar with the "cvs checkout -r BRANCH" notation. It will be necessary from now on for a checkout.
Some examples:
PHP 5: cvs co -r PHP_5 php-src-ze2 PHP 4: cvs co -r PHP_4 php-src-ze1 PHP 4.3: cvs co -r PHP_4_3 php-src-ze1
I think that PHP 5 (or whatever the latest major version of PHP in the works is at a given moment) should be in HEAD, and not in a branch. CVS branches are really useful for maintaining old versions, but I think HEAD is the most suitable branch for ongoing development(*), and we're not really using it with this setup. Using this approach, we'll develop PHP 5 in HEAD, and once PHP 6 comes around the corner, we'd branch away a PHP_5 branch, and HEAD will become PHP 6. It's pretty similar to the method we've been using with mini versions.
Thoughts?

(*) You can use -A safely, some CVS features (at least in certain versions) work sub-optimally when inside branches, etc.
