first of all thanks to martin and all the other for the great work,
now i looking forward to upgrade to moodle 1.4,

las time i did a upgrade i did the following:
cvs update -dP
it did a update but unfortunatelly not to the last stable version but to the 1.4 beta.

so what to do now to get the last stable 1.4 version of moodle?

TIA

Harald

I've got a similar question. (I apologize in advance for my CVS inexperience.)

Up until now, I've been tracking 1.4dev via CVS. Now I'd like to start tracking 1.4+ on this server. I've been doing 'cvs update -dP', but I assume that would get me into 1.5dev at this point which I definitely don't want.

Should I do:

# cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/moodle co -r MOODLE_14_STABLE moodle
# cvs update -dP

That won't be 1.4+, will it? Is it possible to track 1.4+ with CVS?

Oops. It looks like I got onto 1.5dev somehow. My current database is (2004082600).

If I install v1.4 which presumably has a more recent database than that, would things break?
