use of the word 'version' in cederqvist and "cvs update"

[Ming Kin Lai]

Although Sec 1.2 of the 1.11.20 cederqvist says "the word version is almost 
never used in this document", I have found quite a number of places where it 
is used, probably inappropriately.  The maintainer of the manual may want to 
search for the word "version" throughtout the manual and make sure it is 
used properly.  For example, the first sentence in Sec 4.9 says "Sometimes a 
working copy's revision has extra data ...it might be ... restricted to 
versions (revisions?) prior to a certain date .."  And I think it requires 
some clarification of what "restricted" means.  That is, what is restricted? 
 Later in the same section: "People often want to retrieve an old version 
(revision?)..."
In the second figure in that section, there is this "VERS: 1.1"  Apparently 
it is due to RCS.  RCS possibly uses the word "version".  I just wonder 
whether the output of "cvs update" should change that to "revision" in order 
to be consistent with the CVS terminiology and the output of other commands.
