Good question!

Yes; it makes ^/stable/10 ^/stable/9’s ancestor for changes from ^/head, even though the ancestry was the other way around (^/stable/9 is ^/stable/10’s ancestor, chronologically… but content-wise ^/stable/9 is a subset really of everything in ^/stable/10 and ^/head). There have been a few discussions about this on the developer’s list, and the general consensus was a trickle down method, i.e. “merge from head to head-1; merge from head-1 to head-2; etc”.

There’s some minor disagreement on content in the MFC messages, but the way I have things right now is the preferred format AFAIK, i.e. less people have nitpicked the messages, content-wise.

After I fix the small formatting annoyance with my MFCs vs others, I was thinking of putting out the scripts I use for CR; it would be nice for everyone to be using the same tools.

Thanks!
