That's typical if you're working on a branch -- files that exist on the
branch but not on the trunk will be in the Attic, files that have been
removed on the branch but still exist on the trunk will not.

THANKS for the info!!

It is true I have been working on a branch, but why, if that is the
case, did it not do it to all then?  It was working fine for sometime,
then, what appears to be no reason, started sending them to the
Attic.

I'm no expert, but I believe that files "add"ed on a
branch go into the Attic automatically because they do
not exist on the "main" branch.  I had some trouble
with this myself, and maybe one of the gurus can
explain it better to both of us...

filename,t and Attic

2001-02-06 Thread Cheryl Tipple

Hi Larry,
THANKS for the info

I have another problem I am trying to solve and wanted to make sure the
filename, t caused no problem to it.

In certain directories the good files are going to the Attic and the deleted
files are staying in the directory.  In other words my repository path is now
the Attic only for certain files in certain directories and in some
directories all files now have the Attic in the repository path.  Does anyone
know what I have done to cause this?
Example
Repository revision:1.1.2.3
/path1/CVS/path3/path4/path5/path6/maindir/dir/dir/Attic/filename
should be
/path1/CVS/path3/path4/path5/path6/maindir/dir/dir/filename


I tried checking it out in another area, updating and a few other things.
Got any ideas on how to solve this one, or even what I must have done to cause
this?

Thanks in advance for any help!!!

Regards,
Cheryl

When you do a ``cvs add'', the message you give (if any) is stored in
the ,t file.  They should get removed when you commit (or remove) the
file.  There's no harm in removing them (other than losing the message,
but if they're zero size, you don't have to worry about that).

filename,t

2001-02-05 Thread Cheryl Tipple

I would like to get some information on the filename with the ,t at the
end.  Under the CVS directory where Entries, Repository, Root files are
located, I now have some files with a comma t extension that have 0 data
in the file.  Is this some type of temp file?
filename,t

Can you tell me how they got there or why and what happens if they are
removed?  I have tried to find information on them at various web sites,
but have had no luck.

THANKS in advance for any information.

Regards,
Cheryl
