I do not know how to handle the following error:
cvs server: cannot add file `Makefile' when RCS file
`/cvsroot/quantlib/QuantLib/Linux/Makefile,v' already exists
cvs [server aborted]: correct above errors first!
I screwed up something while adding/moving/renaming the files
makefile/MAKEFILE/Makefile in the Linux folder of a module called QuantLib.
Now if I run:
cvs update -A -d (in directory E:\Projects\QuantLib\Linux)
I obtain:
cvs server: Updating .
cvs server: nothing known about Makefile
cvs server: nothing known about makefile
*****CVS exited normally with code 0*****
[E:\Projects\ is my local dir where I checked out the
QuantLib module]
Then I create a new Makefile file and I try:
cvs add Makefile (in directory E:\Projects\QuantLib\Linux)
with the following result:
cvs server: scheduling file `Makefile' for addition
cvs server: use 'cvs commit' to add this file
permanently
*****CVS exited normally with code 0*****
finally I try to commit:
cvs commit -m "no message" Makefile (in directory E:\Projects\QuantLib\Linux)
but unfortunately I just obtain:
cvs server: cannot add file `Makefile' when RCS file
`/cvsroot/quantlib/QuantLib/Linux/Makefile,v' already exists
cvs [server aborted]: correct above errors first!
*****CVS exited normally with code 1*****
Please help me.
I did my best to get out of this frustrating situation with no luck
thank you in advance
