It sounds like the command is locking itself out. Do you perhaps have that subdirectory checked out out more than once under your current working directory or have symbolic links in the repository that would result in the same thing? It would be helpful to see the output from ``cvs version'' in your working directory as well as the output from the above command with the -t global option to trace the execution. -- Larry Jones Things are never quite as scary when you've got a best friend. -- Calvin _______________________________________________ Bug-cvs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-cvs
