Correct. I followed that practice of the previous committers to the
trees. It has both advantages and disadvantages. You listed a
disadvantage. An advantage is that we can easily tell people: ``Get the
`gnumach-1-branch' from cvs and compile that one.'' without having to
worry if they have suitable versions of the Auto* tools installed. I
don't know if that is really a strong argument, though.
I don't have a general objection against changing that practice.
What are others's opinions?
Regards,
Thomas
