system-config-packages branch reminder

[Jeremy Katz]

Just a reminder that the version of system-config-packages being shipped
is (still) the redhat-config-packages-1_1_x branch and not HEAD, so you
need to be sure to be making translation changes there instead of to
HEAD.

Jeremy,

What about other packages? What's the reason for this branching?

s-c-p is the only one I know of.

HEAD is a new codebase that there just hasn't been the time to finish.

I haven't seen any information regarding different branch in Fedora 
Translation. As far as I know, I only translate whatever files available 
for me after checkout, which I'm sure is HEAD. Heck, I don't even know 
what is the name of the branch if I want to checkout it.

Please.... write it somewhere, so that we translators don't have to 
translate in the dark. I really think it's the job of Fedora maintainer 
(Red Hat staff) to have different branch properly announced and the 
statistics being displayed, much like KDE is maintaining different branches.

Hum, reminder? =)

I checked out the file for that branch (redhat-config-packages-1_1_x),
and did some changes to it, when I try to commit it, I get this error:

cvs server: sticky tag `redhat-config-packages-1_1_x' for file `ca.po'
is not a branch
cvs [server aborted]: correct above errors first!

So it is not a branch. Is it just looked to a certain repository
version? Does it mean that if there are more recent versions I will not
be able to update that file?

How should I deal with this? 
(I'm not a cvs master, so help will be very appreciated! :)

Thanks a lot!

Doh!
(cough, cough)
I obviously meant "locked" not "looked" :D

This has been the case for a couple of releases now.  I thought I sent
something about it earlier in FC3, but that might have been the end of
FC2.

It should be a branch...  it's definitely one now.  Somehow, it looks
like ca.po was a tag instead of a branch.  I've convinced it to change
its mind so you should be able to commit to the branch now.
