I want to use cvs for version control management
of a distributed production system with numerous
identically configured servers. The systems have
sctripts, binary executables, and soft links. The SA's
installed version 110 of cvs on Solaris for me.
I set PreservePermissions in config to track soft links.
My problem is that whenever a soft link changes to point
to a new file, cvs can no longer process the directory. For
example, running
cvs -n update
in the directory causes a core dump and leaves locks set.
If I'm misunderstanding something I should know, please refer
me to the appropriate manual. I have read Per Cederqvist's
"Version Management with CVS for cvs 1.10, and studied page
75 in particular.
Could this be the result of a missing or incorrect installation or
initialization option?
Thanks for any assistance you can give me,
Tom Morrisette
