    5353 * You can use revision numbers in special cases (e.g. you are trying to reverse a checked-in change).[[BR]]
    5454   But note that the correspondence of symbolic name and revision number is ''different'' for '''every''' RCS file.
     55 * The RCS revision numbers have four parts: L.U.B.S, being Level, Update, Branch, Sequence[[BR]]
     56   Without branches, you only get only L.U type numbers, e.g. 1.6.[[BR]]
     57   When you make a branch, the branch point is marked by the .B part of the number, e.g. 1.6.1. for the first branch off revision 1.6.[[BR]]
     58   When you change a file on a branch, the Sequence number is incremented, e.g. 1.6.1.1, 1.6.1.2, etc.
