[sword-devel] Windows CE updates

[Chris Little]

Johan,

I don't know what to suggest if your CVS client can't really handle 
requirements of the platform.  You might consider switching to WinCVS 
since it operates correctly on Windows.

If we do binary mode check-ins of text files, we completely lose the 
ability to track changes between versions, one of the main purposes of 
CVS.  The project files are updated all the time, and they really SHOULD 
be cleaned by hand regularly.
