when updating

by Anthony Rosenbaum · in General Discussion · 01/22/2002 (11:01 am) · 1 replies

should you specify what tag you want? or just hit the "creat missing directories" checkbox and it will figure it out? question being I did w/o the tag and it updates some but at the end it had "exited with code 1" which is an error right? but I compiled fine. Just wanna check on the specifics

When you update to a tag you should definitely check "create missing dirs". If you update often to the head, then you don't need to check that all the time, it runs faster without it.

If you are updating to a tag, thats basically it. If you are updating to the head revision (no tag entered) and previously had a tag, then you need to set the "Reset and stiky date/tag/-k options". Otherwise it just updates to the last tag.
