 Yes. You should have the CVS binary compiled for win32 in you command
 search path.
 
 Normally GUI clients like wincvs install the CVS binary. You need to
 include the path of the binary to your search path in this case. You also
 need to ensure that CVSROOT and HOME variables are defined properly in your
 envt. settings.

 This might be intentionally, or it might not.)
Well, the display text is completely different from the link - the link
itself is [EMAIL PROTECTED]; the HTML tag is:

a href=mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]gnulists-ownrr at gnu.org,
info-cvs-admin at owlriver.com/a

So, as you see, the link doesn't correspond to either of the two displayed
addresses.

 I'll try it myself.
Good luck.

Correction: please address questions about CVSNT to those addresses.

This list is the appropriate place to discuss CVS on Windows, provided you
are asking about cvs.exe downloaded from, or built from the sources at,

 Thanks for the replies. Regarding the 'millions of source

 - sorry, but what I meant was my project has thousands (2000+) of
 source files, with a combined size (including bitmap resources etc) of
 hundreds of megabytes.
Ah, that sounds much more sane and manageable.

 That said, could you give a tip on what's the
 best way for the programmers to modify the project?
Same as I said the other day - try to break it down into smaller modules
that can be compiled independently.

Also keep in mind that you don't have to do a full checkout every time
someone checks in a file - you only have to update the file(s) that changed.

CVS 1.12.11 not playing well with Eclipse

2005-04-11 Thread Tate Austin



Hi, I have been 
using 1.12.11 for a little while in the CLI environment with no troubles. 
But now when trying to use eclipse I cannot seem to checkout a new project from 
the same repository? In attempting to pull from 'HEAD" it claims: CVS 
internal error resource does not start with root. Am I SOL and just need 
to get a lower version installed?

tagging an alias module

2005-04-11 Thread Jean-Pierre Sevigny
Hi,
I have a module, say mymodule, defined like this:
mymodule -a Project/Web \
   !Project/Web/Client1 \
   !Project/Web/Client2
When tagging the module, everything in Web gets tagged.  I would like 
not to tag Project/Web/Clientx.

Is there an easy way to do this, beside restructuring my repo, or 
listing all files individually in the mymodle, or
writing a script that automatically builds the mymodule when something 
is added..etc...?

Thanks,
JP

Your problem is that your alias module is defined incorrectly. It should be:
mymodule -a Project/Web/Clientx Project/Web
With my test modules set like this:
mod_test1 -a !test1/test2 test1
mod_test2 -a test1 !test1/test2
two test 'cvs rtags' produce the output shown below. Note that the first 
one does what you want; the second does what tags everything, which 
isn't what you want.

Doh!  I left out a really important '!'. Sorry. Your module should be:
mymodule -a !Project/Web/Clientx Project/Web

Sure.  Just make sure the command-line client (cvs.exe) is
on your Path.

(If you installed one of the GUI front-ends, you almost
certainly installed a command-line client with it,
probably cvsnt.)
