Revision file directory on WinNT-based GEOS SDK.



You will notice that on the WinNT-based SDK, the revision file
for your geode is expected to be in the BRANCH directory, not
your WORKING directory

This is the correct functionality. The reason for using the
BRANCH directory rather than your personal WORKING directory
is so the revision file exists in a common directory for
group projects. You want a common revision file to reflect
changes made by any of the group members.

If you want to make the tools use the revision file in your
WORKING directory, modify the geos.mk file like this:

#if   define(GEODE) && exists($(CURRENT_DIR)/$(GEODE).rev)
REVFILE     = $(CURRENT_DIR)/$(GEODE).rev

(In otherwords, change INSTALL_DIR to CURRENT_DIR.)
