Here's the situation, I have:
gtkyahoo/...
gtkyahoo/libyahoo/...
The libyahoo directory is being split off to it's own project/repository,
however, gtkyahoo still needs to have a current build of it.
I _thought_ that I would just be able to check out gtkyahoo, and then check
out libyahoo from a different repository, and maintain the same hierarchy,
but it appears that this does not work - the checkout goes fine, but when I
go to update, it looks like the cvs command only looks at the CVS/Root file
the first time, instead of looking at it for every subdirectory. It then
complains about the Respository directory not being a subdirectory of the
parent dir's Repository directory.
I tried adding libyahoo to the .cvsignore file, but that didn't work. (I
figured, well, maybe I won't be able to update both at once, but at least I
can get it to stop complaining.)
I was hoping to be able to just do that nasty checkout once, and then have
cvs updates/etc. work normal from then on.
It crossed my mind that I might be able to do this with a mechanism similar
to tracking third party sources, but I'm not sure how to go about this,
being that the place I want to track is a subdirectory, not the whole thing.
How can I go about doing what I'm trying to do?
