Re: Branches in CVS repository?

May we make the date optional?
We could, if you can convince me that it is unneeded. At the moment I
still think that it is useful.
I don't debate that it will be useful to you.
But if it's not useful to someone else, and they're already operating in
a separate tag namespace, why is it important to you?
It's not that I can't add a date on the end of every branch; it's just
that I don't particularly want to, and I don't see how that helps the
broader community. (What I would imagine helpful is requiring people to
document the branches they've created.)
