Heh - 90% of the time I check to make sure that the setting is still 'plain
text' musta missed that one - haven't had to change it in a while anyhow...

I mean that I have a lot of history that I don't really need... and the
problem is not everything has the release/vendor tag... so compressing
history is failing... I dunno I'll pursue it more - but those things that
had a vendor tag I didn't seem to be able to remove the inbetween versions
either - maybe was just a wrong option - I'll play with it more this weekend
and provide more details.

But - since you didn't immdiatly say 'hey you can use.......' I guess
there's no way to lop a branch off (prune) ...  or maybe the problem is that
my current configuration ends up being entirely within the branch and I'm
not on the head?  I started once upon a time with a cvs import -m "initial"
common fc inital

mmm wonder if I ended up with a -b in there too - I don't think so.... but
anyhow sorry - more later.
