New stable CVS branch for preparing first version 5.2 release candidate

[sfeam <sf...@us...>]

There is now a stable branch for 5.2 separate from the main
(development) branch, which for now remains 5.1

To download a copy of the new stable branch (assumes bash shell)

    mkdir gnuplot52
    cd gnuplot52
    export CVSROOT=:pserver:ano...@gn...:/cvsroot/gnuplot
    cvs login    (hit Enter when asked for a password)
    cvs -z3 checkout -r  branch-5-2-stable  gnuplot

Any patches, documentation, etc to be included in the first 5.2 release candidate
should be applied to this new stable branch.

Any new features or fixes to code under development should continue to
be applied to the main cvs development branch.

Right now the stable and development branches have identical content except
for version labels.   They will diverge as new patches are applied to one branch
but not the other branch.
