Robb Matzke e4aae4fd9b [svn-r549] ./bin/h5vers
Fixed a bug that caused `h5vers -i' to fail with a usage
	message.  The new behavior is the same as `h5vers -i release'
	which increments the release number.

./bin/snapshot
	A shell script intended to be run nightly from cron which
	compares the current version of hdf5 against the previous
	version.  If there are differences it creates a tar file in an
	ftp directory, increments the hdf5 release number, and commits
	the changes back into the cvs repository.  The name of the ftp
	directory in which to place the release can be given on the
	command line (default /hdf3/ftp/pub/outgoing/hdf5/snapshots).
	The CVSROOT environment variable must be set.
