I thought I understood this, but the evidence is against me ...
We have a situation where we need to see the state of a branch
at a point of time in the past. Problem is that if I checkout
the branch and then update ... -D date ... what I appear to get

It was my first thought to use cvs status, but this causes a
file locking
problem:
cvs status: [11:04:23] waiting for markh's lock in /tag/dcacvs/CVSROOT
I had presumed this was because the temporary file copies
(into /tmp) had to be protected from further changes while
CVS completed the commit
I'd come to that belief too, but I was hoping otherwise!Thanks for the URL - I'll see where that gets me.#!/mjh-Baris Sahin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: -To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]From: Baris Sahin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>Date: 09/03/2002 12:05PMcc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]Subject: Re: (no subject)hi,cvs does
A simple question. Can I discover on which branch a file is being committed from withina script run from the commitinfo file? Basically, I know how to apply per user/module access controls, but I would like to extend this to include branch information so that certain teams are confinedto branches.

and test result tracking etc., etc.
A static capture just won't work here, I'm afraid.

Title: CVS diff --exclude excluded
In the CVS (1.11.1pl1) source, the GNU option '--exclude' is
explicitly omitted from the command line parser data structures
with a comment saying it did not seem applicable for CVS.
Well, I think I have a need, and I wonder if there are any
alternatives or
Title: RE: giving up CVS
Take a look at cvswrappers. If you want all files matching
a particular filename pattern to have specific commit options,
you can define them here. For instance, you could have:
*.gif -k 'b'
*.jpg -k 'b'
etc.

Finally, I realise why remote exports failed for me.
The test for a CVS directory, which labels an area as a
work area, takes place in a temporary directory on the server.
If you have the TopLevelAdmin option set in the CVSROOT/config
file, the test sees the CVS directory created by that command

I have an exactly similar problem (CVS version 1.11, Solaris 2.6).
Looking at the code suggests that the working area check
(i.e., is there a CVS directory here) is done at the server
and not at the client.
Can this be correct?

(a bit late - sorry!)
We manage many InstallShield sources in CVS
without any problems. The only thing we try
to do (but little goes wrong if we forget!)
is to work on the Windows pieces by checking
out to windows, and UNIX sources by checking
out to UNIX.

This is the way I advocate CVS usage.
We use tags of the form 'Build-MMDD-nn' then
use a 'Release-NN_MM_XX' tag at the point of release.

The compatibility list for Igloo implies that Igloo works
most of the time between visual age and a CVS repository.
Does anyone have experience in this area? What works and
what doesn't?

This might be a WinCVS 1.1b14 issue, but I suspect there
is something greater happening here!
A while ago, I removed a directory from a project because
its name only differed in case from a file in the same
directory (fine for UNIX, bad for Windows). But I now
get failures with WinCVS checkout b
