Description: When committing and not adding a description, cvs does commit the files but also hangs afterwards, causing a stale lock. How-To-Repeat: See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=157881 for a recipe. Fix: Apply the following patch. diff -r cvs-1.11.2-old/src/commit.c cvs-1.11.2-new/src/commit.c 499,502c499,504 < /* We always send some sort of message, even if empty. */ < /* FIXME: is that true? There seems to be some code in do_editor < which can leave the message NULL. */ < option_with_arg ("-m", saved_message); --- > /* Send a blank comment if the editor leaves it blank. Otherwise, > we hang in an editor session on the server, which is bad. */ > if (saved_message) > option_with_arg ("-m", saved_message); > else > option_with_arg ("-m", ""); _______________________________________________ Bug-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-cvs
