I just hit the worst Cygwin bug I've encountered, the RCS bug which silently corrupts text files > 256K. That's the last thing I expect from a version control system!
After some moments of panic, I was able to retrieve a good copy from backups, but have lost my revision history. Anyway, I immediately did a list search and found this is a known bug. Shouldn't this package be pulled? Just for the record, the suggested env var fix RCS_MEM_LIMIT=0 to "force stdio" does not work for me, but the RCS_MEM_LIMIT=10240 to allow 10megs of diffs does.. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
