Note at times you may find newer directories on the server with limited
permissions. These represent snapshots that have not yet been verified
as correct, or are known to be incorrect.
When a particular snapshot is ready for public consumption the directory
permissions are relaxed, the LATEST-IS- file is updated and a message is
sent to the gcc list.
Using a snapshot before it's officially made available is an unwise thing
to do since it may become impossible to update to an official snapshot.
The "gcc_latest_snapshot" tag has been moved. You can use
cvs update -rgcc_latest_snapshot to update your CVS tree to the latest
official snapshot.
When a particular snapshot is ready for public consumption the LATEST-IS-
file is updated and a message is sent to the gcc list. Please do not use
a snapshot before it has been announced that way.
