I also tried with 1.11.23 and it still gave me the same messages. It does not look like the branch tag was moved.

It does not look like the branch tag moves to represent the newest HEAD revisions. -- Jake Colman Director of Software Development Principia Partners LLC 101 West Elm Street Suite 620 Conshohocken, PA 19428 +1 (610) 755-9786 www.principiapartners.com
