Here ya go.

takepatch: 991 new revisions, 0 conflicts in 578 files
206734 bytes uncompressed to 954854, 4.62X expansion
Running resolve to apply new work ...
Using lm.bitmover.com:0 as graphical display
Verifying consistency of the RESYNC tree...
resolve: found 103 renames in pass 1
resolve: resolved 103 renames in pass 2
resolve: applied 578 files in pass 4

I love how much people move around files when the SCM system actually handles
it properly. I used to worry that people who were trained to not move files
by CVS would never figure out that BK handles it; I was wrong and glad of it :)
