Hi, I'm using the WinCVS versino of cvs that seems based on cvs 1.10.5. and I encountered a bug that according to http://www.cvshome.org/docs/knownbugs2.html should have been fixed in cvs 1.10.3 : "cvs diff", if it is displaying differences for a file in a subdirectory, will now include the subdirectory name (checked in 1998- 09-24). This bug doesn't appear on cvs 1.10.7.for linux. So I tried to recompile a more recent version. I tried both 1.10.8 and 1.10.7. I'm using cygwin and gnu compilation tools so I did ./configure make make install The compilation works fine but unfortunately, for each CVS command i tried i get the error message: $ cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home2/cvsroot login (Logging in to [EMAIL PROTECTED]) CVS password: cvs [login aborted]: could not open //.cvspass: No such file or directory I tried to create a .cvspass file but that doesn't worked. Is this because I didn't use MS Visual C++ to compile? (That would be a shame...) If yes, does anybody have a prebuilt cvs binary for windows without the nasty bug? If not, what's the solution ?
