Actually, I don't think there would be that much demand, because it
would be a hindrance to consistency. Karsten, there should be a pretty
easy way to get modules to automatically "include" a checkout of the
common stuff. In the CVSROOT/modules file, simply insert this near the
top of the list. (The list itself is a little hinky, and could probably
use some trimming, since it has a bunch of entries that don't match
existing stuff in the repository.)
base common css scripts xsl
Then, for any directories containing docs (i.e. modules), do:
module module &base
Whoops, that should have been:
module module base
Using the "&" ampersand symbol moves the common/, xsl/, etc. *under* the
checked-out module, meaning that everyone would have to change existing
Makefiles, DTD's, etc.
