First here is a recipe which *only* works with the older version of
vc. (For which I have to use Xemacs: its vc version is from 2007)
1. Create a new file.
2. Write a line.
3. Save the file
2. C-x v i register is with RCS
3. (Vc-nect-action) checkout
4. write the second line, save
5. (vc-next-action) checkin version 1.2
6. (Vc-nect-action) checkout version 1.2
7. Add a new line, save
8. (vc-next-action 1) now in the old VC version you are asked for a
«new version or backend», you time for example 2.1
9. Voila rev is now 2.1
When I try to follow these steps, running Emacs -Q, in step 8 I just
receive in the prompt «New Backend» but not «version».
I found the culprit:
In the *old* vc version the relevant functions were:
(defun vc-rcs-checkin (file rev comment)
(defun vc-checkin (file &optional rev comment initial-contents)
Now they are:
(defun vc-checkin (files backend &optional comment initial-contents)
(defun vc-rcs-checkin (files comment)
There is no argument for rev.
I already contacted the author.
I find this feature allowing rev as an parameter very useful, but I
first want to discuss the issue with the author.
