" lines to stdout X-Reportbug-Version: 0.54 X-Mailer: reportbug 0.54 Date: Tue, 09 May 2000 16:10:52 +0200 Message-Id: -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: RIPEMD160 Package: cvs Version: 1.10.7-7 Severity: normal Hi, while creating a diff with "cvs diff -u", cvs first outputs "? " lines for all unknown files. Since I usually test my changes before submitting them :-), this happens for all the executables built. This information should normally go to stderr for my viewing pleasure, but is sent to stdout instead, thus ending up in the diff. This makes creating diffs from scripts difficult and also adds an extra step to deploying a diff, so this probably should be changed to stderr.
