I found some of the changes I made and commited were overwritten
in the repository. I think we have to take precautions to avoid
overwriting each other's work.
To excute "cvs update" RIGHT BEFORE "cvs commite" will prevent
the situation from happening. (See CVS manual chapter 6.) It will
incorporate all commited changes in the latest version into the
working copy which is to be commited. CVS may tell us there are
some conflits during the merge which we have to resolve.
By the way, I realized "cvs diff" does not compares the working copy
with the latest version but the version one checked out.
Since the dec-alpha compiler does not like a character string with
a zero length, I would like to ask all the authors to fill those
information character strings, such as CRAUTH, so that we really
have a fully portable package.
