Re: cvs tag renaming after repo copy

John Polstra has made a script (Fixtags) for it which we use for the
FreeBSD repository. I don't think he has any problems with it being
distributed, but as it doesn't have a copyright statement i just want
to ask before I distribute it...

Uh... I wrote a replacement for that in 2001 (~des/bin/fixtags.pl).
I'm surprised you still use John's version, which is excruciatingly
slow, since 1) it's a shell script, 2) it's a *recursive* shell script,
3) it runs rcs twice for every modified tag.

My version was under 3-clause BSD; I just switched it to 2-clause.
