(Hopefully, this is not an FAQ that I wasn't able to somehow
track down, but...)
I'm seeing a strange response *sometimes* from a CVS log
command. When I say *sometimes*, I mean that certain users
can seem to get the problem consistently with a given test case,
and others cannot - even from the same environment.
The exact behavior is that issuing the command:
cvs -d :pserver:user@host:/cvs_dir log module/dir/.file
will yield the result:
cvs [server aborted]: no such directory `module/dir'
RCS file: /cvs_dir/module/file/.file,v
Working file: module/dir/.file
head: 1.3
[...]
...so it (apparently) errors out, then proceeds to give the
result I really expect! I've also tried going into the
module/dir directory and issuing the same cvs log command
(this time against .file, of course), and in this case, I get:
cvs server: nothing known about .file
RCS file: /cvs_dir/module/file/.file,v
Working file: .file
head: 1.3
[...]
Anyone have any ideas?
Further background: client is Windows NT/Cygwin, CVS
version 1.10.3 client, the module/dir/.file exists locally, and
the server is Sun/Solaris 8, CVS version 1.10.
