found something in the book that was rather confusing and caused me some
problems. It talks about the revision numbers applying to entire
trees. A tree can be defined several ways and the book doesn’t define one
at all. If you talk about a repository, a tree and a file this can lead
someone to believe there are several trees in a repository (trunk, branch, ect)
which is not the case for revision numbers. To be clear it would be
better to call it a repository tree or better yet</span></font><i><span
