Oh Oz, please, please wake up! How often did I mention how to solve this?

social_contract.1.1.wml and social_contract.wml are *not* identical. They
differ only in a few HTML tags and I could probably convert
social_contract.1.1.wml into social_contract.wml (in hebrew/). But why should I?
You seem to miss the basic workflow and really, really have to learn it.

I'm sorry if this sounds harsh but how often should I repeat me? If you don't
understand anything you can *always* ask after reading the published information
on the website.

What would be different:
 * content
 * translation check header

This needs to addressed first and I wrote about this at least twice! It is
also obvious as there is no special handling required compared to other
files.

There is no need to address this problem on the server. Yes, CVS doesn't properly
support renaming files but we don't need it. The Hebrew translation has no history
which we need to save.

That's not necessary. The problem can be solved via normal cvs operations as the English
file is not affected (revision number wasn't reset to 1.0 once the last commit error was
fixed). All is fine ...
