RFC: cvs2svn issue 1474

[Max Bowsher <ma...@ukf.net>]

This issue is about a correctness bug caused by over-optimization.

I've attached a patch to the issue, and said the following:
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The patch does solve the correctness issue, but with the following
disadvantages:

1. The contents of the first revision of anything with a vendor branch
will be duplicated in the dumpfile. (In a repository, diffing will
mitigate any size increase).

2. svn log -v will show an unnecessary M for every file.

A possible solution would be to look for empty deltatext in the RCS
file, and handle specially. Is the additional complexity worthwhile?
------------------------------------------------------------------

Comments?

Max.
