same here, however the rsync export on kernel.org is lacking a two sequence number locking that would allow us to checkout a coherent copy of the cvs repository. Currently it works by luck.
if we add the two sequence numbers to the rsync on kernel.org, I believe shutting down the pserver is ok. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
