Ok, but now it does. Here's a patch that works as follows: For each file in the module we are rdiff'ing: if the two versions differ, but the file is marked as "binary" (via cvswrappers, or cvs admin -kb), then instead of trying to print the patch (which would result in an error and non-zero return code), just print out a message like the "patch" program does, ie: "Binary files name:ver1 and name:ver2 differ". Here it is: diff -urN cvs-1.11.1p1-orig/src/patch.c cvs-1.11.1p1-apc/src/patch.c --- cvs-1.11.1p1-orig/src/patch.c Tue Apr 24 14:14:53 2001 +++ cvs-1.11.1p1-apc/src/patch.c Wed Oct 30 15:32:38 2002 @@ -590,6 +592,28 @@ case 0: /* nothing to do */ break; case 1: + /* If files differ and are marked as binary, just output message */ + if (rcsfile->expand != NULL && strcmp(rcsfile->expand, "b") == 0) + { + cvs_output("Binary files ", 0); + cvs_output(finfo->fullname, 0); + cvs_output(":", 1); + if (vers_tag) + cvs_output(vers_tag, 0); + else + cvs_output("missing", 0); + cvs_output(" and ", 0); + cvs_output(finfo->fullname, 0); + cvs_output(":", 1); + if (vers_head) + cvs_output(vers_head, 0); + else + cvs_output("removed", 0); + cvs_output(" differ",0); + cvs_output("\n",1); + break; + } + /* * The two revisions are really different, so read the first two * lines of the diff output file, and munge them to include more _______________________________________________ Bug-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-cvs
