Sorry, I don't understand what needs to be explained. Those are trunk
revision numbers, they are of the "dotted" NNN.X.Y form because they
came from a merge commit of another branch. That branch was Paul
Eggert's local feature branch. But the revisions are still accessible
on the trunk using those very numbers (that's why I made a point of
specifying _trunk_ revno numbers, although the commit was on the
emacs-23 branch -- I knew that trunk will live forever).
So whatever you need to know about these revisions you can see using
these numbers, for example:
bzr log -c 103939.1.41
> I'll need the committer and timestamp of 103939.1.41 and 103939.1.44
> so I can express those as action stamps.
Since both the committer and the time stamp are in the bzr revision
ID, here you go:
bzr log --include-merged --long --show-ids -r 103939.1.41..103939.1.44 |
fgrep revision-id
revision-id: address@hidden
revision-id: address@hidden
revision-id: address@hidden
revision-id: address@hidden
You want the first 2 parts of the revision IDs, before the 2nd dash.
