I can't check in my changes to the ssa branch:
[fluet@lennon src]$ cvs commit mlton/codegen/x86-codegen
cvs commit: Examining mlton/codegen/x86-codegen
cvs server: sticky tag `ssa-branch' for file `mlton/codegen/x86-codegen/x86-allocate-registers.fun' is not a branch
cvs server: sticky tag `ssa-branch' for file `mlton/codegen/x86-codegen/x86-translate.fun' is not a branch
cvs server: sticky tag `ssa-branch' for file `mlton/codegen/x86-codegen/x86.fun' is not a branch
cvs server: sticky tag `ssa-branch' for file `mlton/codegen/x86-codegen/x86.sig' is not a branch
cvs [server aborted]: correct above errors first!
cvs commit: saving log message in /tmp/cvsByqRsI
I think maybe you just tagged the branch, rather than making it a true
branch.
