  91                   <h3>CVS Report Improvements</h3>
  92
  93 <p>Main problem addressed is that certain ECRs (or CRs) would show up if they were imported from a <i>vendor</i> branch. In general handling of revisions on branchs were not working very well. Other improvements include:</p>
  94
  95 <ul>
  96   <li>Changed to use Display package</li>
  97
  98   <li>While cvs_report.pl tries to avoid doing cvs update or recreating the cvs area it is possible that tags could move thus cvs_report.pl should refresh the cvs area in case the baseline tag has moved.</li>
  99
 100   <li>The special tag HEAD is ill defined under CVS. If a file is branched and the baseline tag is on the branch then it turns out that HEAD means the branch's head (this is with cvs diff only). If the file's baseline tag is on the trunk then HEAD means the trunk's head. Additionally the special revision 1.1.1 means <i>vendor</i> branch and is an alias for 1.1. This special situation is now better handled.</li>
 101
 102   <li>Changed the cvs diff --brief to use both from and to tags. Initially it was thought that if from tag didn't exist then cvs diff would complain about that. It does - sometimes. Ah the consistancy of cvs! Gotta love it! Still it's thought that it's better (clearer) to specify both from and to tags</li>
 103
 104   <li>Detection of no change is now better handled</li>
 105 </ul>
 106
 107 <h3>cvsr.php Improvements</h3>
 108
 109 <ul>
 110   <li>Now properly reports the latest revision when multiple revisions are checked in for the same ECR</li>
 111
 112    <li>Changed to return 2 character status, one indicating if the file is new and one to indicate if the file has changed (since the last report). This allows us to have a new and changed file.</li>
