Oh, that sounds nasty - is it a case issue with using WinCVS? I can't imagine you would get case issues on a Unix client.... We get directory issues with lower case getting converted to all caps frequently while using WinCVS back to a Linux server.
I sure hope all the log fixes & syntax changes are in 1.11.2 and that the News file just didn't include those details! The exclusive revision ranges for log ::, is listed as going into 1.11.1 Cheers, Teala -----Original Message----- From: Matthew Herrmann [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, May 09, 2002 7:24 PM To: CVS Mailing List Subject: RE: can't add file to branch, not permissions problem argh! the one on the branch was build.bat and the other on the mainline was Build.bat i mean, it's crazy trying to have files differentiated only by case in a repo, but it would really help if there was a message telling me I was about to do something stupid. I got this: RCS file: /public/Development/CVS/rotorgene/main/Attic/build.bat,v done cvs [server aborted]: received abort signal cvs: commit.c:2044: checkaddfile: Assertion `*rcsnode == ((void *)0)' failed. cvs commit: saving log message in C:\DOCUME~1\matthew\LOCALS~1\Temp\20 and now I actually remember getting this problem before, not that the error message jogged my memory :( -- matthew -----Original Message----- From: Matthew Herrmann [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, 10 May 2002 11:51 To: CVS Mailing List Subject: can't add file to branch, not permissions problem hi all, i'm getting an error trying to commit a new file on a branch. i'm using 1.11.p1 with client/server (win2k client, redhat linux server). checked out a fresh copy of the data: >cvs add build.bat cvs server: use 'cvs commit' to add this file permanently >cvs commit cvs server: cannot lock `/public/Development/CVS/rotorgene/main/Attic/build.bat, v'. cvs commit: saving log message in C:\DOCUME~1\matthew\LOCALS~1\Temp\17 now i checked the directory and there are no lock files, and I can touch a new file in the repo's dir, so i can't see the permissions being an issue. any ideas? also, is the newly released version 1.12 what _was_ the dev version about 2 months ago, or have they made a new minimal patch? On the website it only shows 4 things or so that have changed, or is that just a summary? (ie does it have the fixed log "::" command and the fixed rlog over branches?) thanks, Matthew Herrmann -------------------------------------- Far Edge Technology Level 11, 80 Mount St North Sydney NSW 2060 Australia Ph: 02 9955 3640 Mob: 0404 852 537 _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
