If you never wanted the mp3 file to be in the repository, directly removing the ,v file is a safe operation to do.

I imported some MP3s into CVS by mistake (yes I do own the copywrite!). With my limited knowlege I only know how to delete them by checking the project out and using "cvs delete" to remove the MP3s one by one. However, there is one that produces the following error message... "EOF while looking for end of string in RCS file /var/cvsroot/intranet/audio/Mon27Oct03e0723.mp3,v" This sort of thing is not unexpected because I told CVS all about jpgs, gifs & pngs being binary but not MP3! If I can't check it out then how do I delete the thing? I heard that doing stuff directly in the CVSROOT directory is most inadvisable and could break stuff if I am no careful. Anyone know how I can get out of this pickle? _______________________________________________ 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
