Subject: | Incorrect CVS Entries file |
Date: | Thu, 8 Nov 2007 11:29:39 -0000 |
Hi, I have a problem with CVS. I have a repository located
on a Suse Linux server (CVS version XX) and am checking out code onto a Solaris
9 server (CVS version XX). My module has the following file structure :- Module/dir1/file Module/dir1/subdir1/files Module/dir1/subdir2/files Module/dir1/subdir3/files Module/dir2/subdir4/files (i.e. there is nothing in dir2 except the subdirectory,
although the subdirectory itself contains several files). When I perform a clean checkout of the module into a fresh
working area (using cvs co Module) I get all of the files correctly. However,
if I change any of the files in Module/dir2/subdir4 a call to cvs status does
not show that these files have been changed. They also do not take on
tags after check-in. A quick investigation has uncovered that the CVS/Entries
file under dir2 just contains D indicating no sub-directories so I assume this
is where the problem lies. What I don’t know is how to fix
this. I don’t imagine that I can change the Entries file itself
since this is generated as part of the checkout, so is there a bug in CVS that I
can get a fix for, or is there another file in the repository itself that I can
change to fix this problem? Any help much appreciated. Thanks, Matt Matt Dowding Monitoring & Alerting Telesoft Technologies Ltd This
