Re: gettext, autopoint and cvs
(also unsure if you're subscribed)
I'd (not a release team member) really like autopoint upstream to move
to a more sane design than depending on CVS and embedding a full CVS
repository in a tarball in the package.
I see two possibilities:
Drop the need to store the whole history. This is my preferred option
since I've been bitten before by autopoint not using the latest
version of gettext.m4 and instead using a version that was broken on
64-bit machines (#451921). I can't think of any possible reason to
store the whole history, do you know why it is needed?
Store each version of the files in a new directory in the tarball.
