Hi! We are using a CVS repository on a GNU/Linux Red Hat 9.0 installed distribution. The CVS server is 1.11.2 and the clients are all based on Windows platform where the development is being done. These are WinCVS version 1.3.10 and 1.3.13.
Now the problem is that for the characters - "'x'" (without the double quotes), when I checkout on a Windows system, they are being checked out properly, but when we checked out the same on a Linux system they appeared as - "~Qx~R" (without the double quotes). I checked up in the Repository files lying on the server and I got the same text - "~Qx~R" (without the double quotes). Is this the normal behaviour of the CVS repository files to change the - "'x'" (without the double quotes) characters into "~Qx~R" (without the double quotes) when getting the files from a Windows system to a GNU/Linux System. The condition has been observed only for the lines which are inside the C block comment lines. Actual file on Windows Systems: /* The underscore character '_' is to be replaced in the following code segment with '-' */ if ('_' == UNDER_SCORE) { . . . } Actual file as seen in the GNU/Linux CVS Repository: /* The underscore character ~Q_~R is to be replaced in the following code segment with '-' */ if ('_' == UNDER_SCORE) { . . . } Is there some way to rectify this problem so that the checkout in both the Windows and the GNU/Linux systems is the same??
