is the following directory structure.
.
|- Dir1 : Dir1 comes from Repository1
`- tools : tools/ comes from Repository1 (with no files within tools/)
|- Dir2 : Dir2 comes from Repository1
`- Dir3 : Dir3 comes from Repository2
Note: the 'cvs checkout' for Repository 1 (creating Dir1, tools/ and tools/Dir2) is done first initially creating the local working copy and Repository 2 is always second (creating Dir3).
If for some reason, Dir3 is deleted, then cvs status returns an error message:
cvs status: Examining Dir3 cvs [status aborted]: could not chdir to Dir3: No such file or directory
If I delete the line in CVS/Entries within tools/ for Dir3 (D/Dir3////), the 'cvs status' begins working again.
The oddity, is that if I delete tools/Dir2 (instead of Dir3), then 'cvs status' completes with no errors. For this case, there still exists an entry in the tools/CVS/Entries file for Dir2 (D/Dir3////).
Is this expected behavior? I'm asking because there are some inconsistencies in the 'cvs status' behavior.
Thanks,
Todd
