Hi Ed, this is a bug in NAnt. I will try to get a patch checked in for
it today. I did some checking and to get around this to checkout your
head revision you could probably use the date attribute as a work
around. So something like:
<cvs-export cvsroot=":sspi:your-server:/usr/local/cvsroot"
destination="working"
module="Support"
usesharpcvslib="false"
date="${datetime::now()}"/>
Also, sorry when I replied to this before I must have hit Reply instead
of Reply To All :-) so I am have cc'd the list on this one.
Cheers,
Clayton
