If u had the write access to the file and if it tells "Buffer is read only" means some one may set the watch option for that file in the repository. It can be checked by using the command cvs watchers If the watch option is set means you can use the command cvs edit filename then the file will have the write access and you can edit the file. --Keerthi. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Olivier Salaun Sent: Tuesday, February 13, 2001 2:32 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Bug "Buffer is read-only" Hi, I am using emacs 20.7.1 with CVS 1.11 on Linux system. I often have troubles with emacs not able to edit a file from my local CVS repository. It tells "Buffer is read-only" I have write access on the file ( I can edit it with jed) though. Comitting the file will solve the problem. Is emacs doing some kind of locking on CVS files ? -- Olivier Salaün Comité Réseaux des Universités _______________________________________________ Bug-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-cvs _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
