Right? Correct. We could figure out an interface so that you could get at the file via the rootkey. Something like bk prs '[email protected]|drivers/serial/8250_hcdp.c|20030514145037|13190|7385106462a6872b' which would fall back on looking files up by key rather than path when the path doesn't work and it looks like a key. You are a commercial customer, file an RFE and we'll try and hack it in. It's not a five minute hack but it's not a 5 week hack either. Probably a couple of days to get it right, tested, and integrated on bkbits in bk/web. -- --- Larry McVoy lm at bitmover.com http://www.bitkeeper.com _______________________________________________ Bitkeeper-users mailing list [email protected] http://bitmover.com/mailman/listinfo/bitkeeper-users To unsubscribe from this list, go to the above URL, follow instruction at the bottom of the web page.
