BTW, for those with backwards compatibility concrens, there's an easy upgrade
path - to use the new data
transfer methods new hook files would be set up. Say, *info2 rather than
*info. Then if the *info2 had a
match for the directory, CVS could ignore the *info file.
In five years or so the *info code could probably even be disabled. :)
