| 267935 (current) | 2021-08-04 | cif/5/00/01/ Added the '_chemical_name_common' and '_chemical_name_systematic' data items in entry 5000108. | 5000108.cif | 
| 176428 | 2016-02-13 | Replaced deprecated COD CIF data names with their more modern alternatives. The _cod_cif_authors_sg_Hall and _cod_cif_authors_sg_H-M data items were renamed to _cod_original_sg_symbol_Hall and _cod_cif_authors_sg_H-M respectively. | 5000108.cif | 
| 175365 | 2016-02-01 | cif/5/00/ (antanas@echidna.ibt.lt) Updating bibliography for entries 5000108, 5000136, 5000147, 5000160, 5000172, 5000182. | 5000108.cif | 
| 35911 | 2012-02-28 | cif/ Reorganising ranges 1, 3, 5, 6 and 8 into a prefix-directory tree. | 5000108.cif | 
| 966 | 2010-01-30 | cif/ Adding _cod_database_code tags to all COD entries. Adding tag description to the cif_cod.dic dictionary so that COD entries can be validated. | 5000108.cif | 
| 853 | 2009-11-16 | cif/ Reconstructing spacegroup designators from the symmetry operators were possible. The comands used can be found in the log file reformat-spacegroups-2009.11.14.log committed with the current revision. Only lines that contained spacegroup designators were changed, and all files pass vcif test after the conversion. | 5000108.cif | 
| 19 | 2008-01-26 | Changing all end-of-line codes from DOS style to UNIX style in all COD CIF files, for more convenient processing: In the cod/cif/ directory: ff \*.cif | xargs perl -i -pe 's/\r\n/\n/' | 5000108.cif | 
| 14 | 2008-01-14 | Appending a header with SVN keywords, COD URL and copying policy to all COD CIF files. | 5000108.cif | 
| 13 | 2008-01-13 | Setting the svn:keywords property to "Author Date Revision URL Id" for all CIF files in the cod/cif directory. | 5000108.cif | 
| 1 | 2007-11-30 | Adding all .cif files from the COD, downloaded in a Cod.zip file on 2007.02.07 (and the same Cod.zip is downloadable today, on 2007.11.29) | 5000108.cif |
