This is a situation where CVS tries adding a new directory erroneously to
CVSROOT/Emptydir:
# The CVS repository looks like this
> ls -RF
CVSROOT/ enterprise/
./CVSROOT:
checkoutlist commitinfo,v cvswrappers editinfo,v
loginfo,v notify rcsinfo,v verifymsg
checkoutlist,v config cvswrappers,v history
modules notify,v taginfo verifymsg,v
commitinfo config,v editinfo loginfo
modules,v rcsinfo taginfo,v
./enterprise:
root/ src/
./enterprise/root:
./enterprise/src:
client/ server/
./enterprise/src/client:
./enterprise/src/server:
# The "modules" file has these definitions: (All other admin files are
unchanged)
src enterprise/src
client_src -a src/client
client_dev enterprise/root &client_src
# I check out the module "client_dev":
> cvs co client_dev
cvs checkout: Updating client_dev
cvs checkout: Updating src/client
# I cd to client_dev/src
> cd client_dev/src
# I make a dir
> mkdir shared
# Then I "cvs add" it, and CVS tries to add it to the "Emptydir" instead of
in "src"
> cvs add shared
# CVS 1.11 reports:
cvs [add aborted]: cannot add to
/home/simpsomd/tmp3/cvsroot/CVSROOT/Emptydir
# CVS 1.10 reports
Directory /home/simpsomd/tmp2/cvsroot/CVSROOT/Emptydir/shared added to the
repository
# In the 1.10 case, I can go into the repository and move the directory
manually to the correct place and it works for new checkouts. In the 1.11
case, I'm not sure what to do.
