Re: "it is in the way" problem

[Anjali Madhekar]

I have my CVS repository all setup and working but occasionally I am seeing some really strange errors. Every once in a while when doing an update I get a whole bunch of "move away file X, it is in the way" errors. This seems to happen quite randomly and I haven't been able to pin it down. Anybody ever experienced something like this? Heres the CVS command I'm using to update my working copy: cvs -d :ext:user@server:/repository -z3 up -d -I ! -I CVSI believe this error occurs when/if you have deleted/moved etc some of the CVS files that are created at checkout. It helps to delete that directory/module and checkout again. Subsequent update commands will not have the error. -Anjali Jason Allen wrote: I have my CVS repository all setup and working but occasionally I am seeing some really strange errors.
