Does that mean you think it isn't one?
Correct.
I believe you've written to this list before about issue(s) you've encountered with SVN, a bad merge if memory serves.
Yep :-)
Do you think its an unworthy or untrustworthy successor to CVS?
No.
I use it to the exclusion of CVS at home and at my place of work and find it quite an improvement.
It's a matter of grading. I consider SVN a mediocre revision control. My personal grading of the ones I've used for more than a few minutes, in a scale of 1-10: Perforce; 5.5. SVN; 5 maybe 6. CVS; 2. SourceSafe; 0, because it's flaws can cause harm to productivity, and that's being gracious. But we might be going off-topic at this point ;-) -- -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Redshift Software, Inc. - http://redshift-software.com -- rrivera/acm.org - grafik/redshift-software.com -- 102708583/icq - grafikrobot/aim - grafikrobot/yahoo
