CVS and zsh FAQ

CVS and zsh FAQ

[Andrej Borsenkow]

Just a casual question - why FAQ is kept under ZSH module in CVS? I ask
because if we sometimes decide to branch (e.g. stable version 4 and HEAD
for ongoing development) - FAQ presents obvious problem. It does not
actually belong to any particular ZSH revision at all.

Most projects I am aware of keep FAQ as separate CVS nodule (if CVS is
used for it at all).

It's only there because it's part of the distribution which can't be
auto-generated.  It's too messy to retrieve it separately just to package
up in the tar file.  The real master copy of zshfaq.yo is actually kept on
the CVS server at Sunsited Denmark.  The version at Sourceforge is only
checked in when I update that version.  I don't see an easy alternative
(but it was a good deal messier before Bart suggested I removed the $Id$
tag).
