Dear FreeSurfer Developers,
Thank you very much for providing source code exposed under CVS.
I wonder if there are any plans to either switch to another version control system and/or provide source distribution in versioned tarballs?
N.B. I was asking about vcs change, because rich history of freesurfer development since 1996 is not really accessible with CVS any longer (at least to me with cvs 1:1.12.13-12 on Debian). For instance if I do
cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@fsvm.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu:/usr/fscvsroot checkout -D 1996/02/26 dev
it fails with an error
... U dev/utils/matfile.c cvs [checkout aborted]: invalid change text in /usr/fscvsroot/dev/utils/matrix.c,v
are you observing similar behavior?
