My apologies; I didn't read far enough. :(

To me, that reduces the utility of TortoiseCVS. It's so easy to branch a
branch (thinking you have HEAD), or change an unintended version without
that staring you in the face.

TortoiseCVS developers: Our December hallmark.com traffic showed 25% of
users were Vista with 55.4% XP  and 4% Windows 7. I expect Vista and
Windows 7 to continue to climb. If possible, please figure out something to
provide similar functionality. Otherwise, I would fear gradually losing
user base.

Thanks in advance for your consideration,

Gary

Gary,
Check out this FAQ:
http://www.tortoisecvs.org/faq.html#vista

That part of the explorer interface will not be available in Vista or
Windows 7.

Subject: [TortoiseCVS] CVS field display in Vista folders in Windows
Explorer


I recently upgraded my work PC from XP to Vista. I was able to install
TortoiseCVS V. 1.10.10 and it works fine.

However, although I get a CVS 'tab' in properties on files in a sandbox
that shows Repository, Revision, Sticky tag, etc., those CVS-related fields
don't appear available in Windows Explorer, View, Choose Details, like it
was on XP.

Has anyone figured out how to get those fields to display in Windows
Explorer on Vista / Windows 7 or will we have to wait for an upgraded build
to handle that for us?

Gary
