Hello all,
I'm trying to tag my project using the following command:
cvs -d /var/cvsroot tag -R -b tagname
and I receive the following error:
cvs tag: [13:21:11] waiting for carl's lock in
/var/cvsroot/koa/www/gameimages/artifact
cvs rechecks every 30 seconds, and the lock still exists. Unfortunately,
when I check the directory:
ls -al /var/cvsroot/koa/www/gameimages/artifact
total 48
drwxrwsrwx 3 cvs cvsgroup 4096 Dec 12 13:45 .
drwxrwsrwx 21 cvs cvsgroup 4096 Dec 12 13:45 ..
drwxrwsr-x 2 matt cvsgroup 4096 Sep 7 2006 Attic

I find nothing that looks like a lock.
Taking a look at the cvs config shows that the lock files are supposed to be
in the repository (the LockDir variable is commented out):
# Put CVS lock files in this directory rather than directly in the
repository.
#LockDir=/var/lock/cvs
find from the root of the system does not locate any cvs lock files.
I'm running:
# cvs ver
Concurrent Versions System (CVS) 1.11.2 (client/server)
Any idea how I can unlock the repository?
Cheers!
Carl
