This should be a no-brainer, but I just can't get my CVS setup going. I'm on Win2k, with Cygwin 1.3.2, CVS 1.11 (the cvs built into Cygwin). I have a directory "$HOME/java/sgs" that I want to store into CVS. I'm setting my CVSROOT to ":local:/cygdrive/c/cvsroot". I want to check out "sgs" into "$HOME/java/cvswork/sgs".
Ok, so in the "sgs" directory, I did this: cvs import -m "Simple Grading System" sgs intsoft start This appeared to work, creating lots of "N" and "cvs import: Importing ..." lines. It did, however, skip importing one source file, because it was in a DIRECTORY named "tags". I know why that happened. I'll get that file added once I get everything else working. Anyway, now in "/cygdrive/c/cvsroot", there is a "sgs" directory that contains all of my RCS files. So, now I go to "$HOME/java/cvswork" and try to figure out how to check it out. I'll show a little bit of shell history here, indicating what I tried. ---------------- % pwd /home/dmkarr/java/cvswork % cvs checkout sgs cvs [checkout aborted]: must specify at least one module or directory % mkdir sgs % cvs checkout sgs cvs [checkout aborted]: must specify at least one module or directory % cd sgs % cvs checkout sgs cvs [checkout aborted]: must specify at least one module or directory ---------------- So what am I doing wrong? -- =================================================================== David M.
