Most probably, they are ignored because of the build-in ignore list if CVS, cf. https://www.cvshome.org/docs/manual/cvs-1.11.19/cvs_18.html#SEC178 If you set "-I !" in the command-line of "cvs import", the binary files should be handled, too. > Also, I import .jar files into the cvs area, they donot reflect the > original size in the cvs area and even when I do a check out, their > sizes seem to be less...(For example a .jar of 393 KB is reflecting as > 7KB when I import to cvs and check it out). .jar files are compiled java classes, aren't they? In this case, they are binary files, and they have to be handled like this. See https://www.cvshome.org/docs/manual/cvs-1.11.19/cvs_9.html#SEC79 and https://www.cvshome.org/docs/manual/cvs-1.11.19/cvs_18.html#SEC166 HTH, Spiro. -- Spiro R.
