I cannot read your mind. We do already have a branch named FSF where the readline imports have been done before. The same branch has ben used for importing pristine versions of texinfo. It seems the people you have asked must not be used to track code from 3rd parties, and are willing to cut corners. Anyway, I have prepared things for you to do the real merge. I have - imported 5.1 on the fsf branch. - Tagged the readline sources - created a branch for the merge to happen there. What you need to do now is check out the branch readline_5_1-import-branch for gdb+dejagnu then do cvs update -jFSF:yesterday -jFSF src/readline resolve the conflicts, cvs add new files, cvs rm files (and directories), and commit. I would suggest letting a few others give it a spin on the branch with exotic architectures, then merge everything into mainline in a single swoop. Note that you need to delete yourself the files that have disappeared from readline between 4.3 and 5.1 if any, cvs will not do that automatically.
