Re: [equinox-dev] disabled keyword expansion for osgi defined classes

[Thomas Watson <tjwatson@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Keyword expansion is an option for ASCII
files in CVS.  This option allows the CVS server to replace keywords
with information from the server when they are checked in.  For example,
"$Header: ?" will insert the path to the file on the server,
or "$Revision: $" will insert the version of the file.  This
causes problems for the org.osgi.* files because we would like for the
source to these files to remain identical to the source from the OSGi Alliance.
 If keyword expansion is enabled for these files then the keywords
will get replaced with information provided by our org.eclipse.dev CVS
server.

I'm drawing a blank on "keyword expansion".

I turned off keyword expansion for the OSGi defined classes.  This
helps us keep the OSGi defined classes in sync with code delivered by the
OSGi Alliance.  This only affects the the packages that start with
org.osgi.* in the org.eclipse.osgi project.  Please be sure to pull
the latest version of the org.eclipse.osgi project before committing any
changes.  This change has affected all branches and versions of the
org.eclipse.osgi project in equinox. 

Thanks.
