Re: subtree replication

[Mark Soldavini <marks@sharemedia.com>]

I did a checkout of cvs using the following command:

cvs -z3 co -P -rHEAD ldap

and I still see the same set of code, referred to below, for
the  subtree replication feature.  I thought you were saying a
different version was present on HEAD?
