Re: Problem to delete CVS directories...

2001-09-12 Thread Marko Faldix

Dear Mr. Sanchez,

we had the same problem and came to the conclusion that the only way to
delete directories from a modul as well as deleting a whole modul is to be
done via filesystem on the unix machine, i.e. log in on your unix box and
change to the repository directory, then delete the respective subdirs you
want to get rid of. Fortunately, the rest of the CVS system is not affected.

In advance,

If they are just for testing purposes, and nobody cares about them at
all, then just bypass the cvs interface and remove them directly from
the repository.

``cvs remove'' does not delete directories. When you add a directory
to a CVS module, it stays for good. The deletion of a directory
is emulated by removing all files within it, and then checking out
with empty-directory-pruning. Of course, a directory may appear deleted
to you on one branch, but it may exist for someone else on another
branch. And you can go back to a tagged release of the software in
which that directory was not empty.
