>Description:
after getting CVSROOT and adding passwd file to it,
cvs commit dumps core, leaving locks in repository
Thinking a bit after, I realized that adding passwd to _repository_
(with ,v file) is really silly :) but anyway, there definitely should *NOT*
be any condition when cvs dumps core, especially leaving repository locked.
>How-To-Repeat:
cvs -d /tmp/cvs init
cvs -d /tmp/cvs get .
cd CVSROOT
touch passwd
chmod 600 passwd
cvs add passwd
(echo ',s/#PreservePermissions=no/PreservePermissions=yes/g'; echo w) | ed config
cvs com -m ""
echo 1 >> passwd
echo "" >>config
cvs com -m ""
here cvs dumps core
>Fix:
not known for me right now.
