WinCVS seems unable to checkout stuff from cvs into a directory which already exists.
In the following example c:\development\components\live already exists on my NT disk. cvs checkout -P development/components/live (in directory C:\) cvs checkout: in directory development: cvs checkout: cannot open CVS/Entries for reading: No such file or directory cvs [checkout aborted]: cannot open CVS/Entries.Static: No such file or directory *****CVS exited normally with code 1***** However, if I specify the target directory as follows cvs checkout -P development/components/live (in directory C: \development\components\live) cvs server: Updating development/components/live U development/components/live/ACSTypes.pas U development/components/live/ATAbout.dfm Loads more stuff *****CVS exited normally with code 0***** but now my components are in c: \development\components\live\development\components\live which is not where I want them. Am I doing anything wrong ?
