could you track down the first divergence and/or give more info about those repositories? I've tried to check the commits shown in your attached picture, but couldn't find any. in fact the authors are quite suspicious, in my repo there's no commit from fred, neither any from 1999-10-05. history from 1.2.12 to 1.2.13 looks like $ git log -4 release/1.2.13 commit 0cf97b5cdceecbba937f43ac827f4065aad5001e Author: Han-Wen Nienhuys <han...@xs4all.nl> Date: Mon Oct 11 11:47:55 1999 +0200 release: 1.2.13 commit e319b8b2e19181a6e0864139bd94a36d66adb602 Author: Jan Nieuwenhuizen <jann...@gnu.org> Date: Sun Oct 10 17:19:11 1999 +0200 patch::: 1.2.12.jcn2 pl 12.jcn2 - smobs commit b4c9fbc328f1e9681b0c582bae7be61a451a43d0 Author: Jan Nieuwenhuizen <jann...@gnu.org> Date: Wed Oct 6 10:57:49 1999 +0200 patch::: 1.2.12.jcn1 pl 12.jcn1 - auto-knees, input/test/auto-knee.ly commit 1a71119277d04b287b3a976c526adba6500239c6 Author: Han-Wen Nienhuys <han...@xs4all.nl> Date: Mon Oct 4 13:37:38 1999 +0200 release: 1.2.12 $ (and that matches that seen at http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=lilypond.git&a=search&h=0cf97b5cdceecbba937f43ac827f4065aad5001e&st=commit&s=1.2.12 ) p _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
