Hello,
I thought that it might be a good idea to view the changes before
doing "cvs up". So I tried:
cvs di -rBASE -rHEAD
This prints the diff on stdout, as expected. But it also prints many
annoying error messages saying:
cvs server: tag BASE is not in file tests/README
cvs server: tag BASE is not in file tests/aclocal.m4
cvs server: tag BASE is not in file tests/actest.m4
One line per each dead file in the repository. I do not mean files dead
during the perios between BASE and HEAD, that would be OK.
The files have been dead for years.
My client is version 1.11.20 on GNU/Linux,
---- my ~/.cvsrc ----
cvs -q
diff -u
-----------
To reproduce the bug, check out
:ext:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/autoconf
and do
cd autoconf
cvs di -rBASE -rHEAD >/dev/null
With "cvs diff -N", there is no output on stderr, but the diff shows the
files as if they had been added.
The bug haven't appeared with :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvs/gettext
Perhaps it does not affect pserver servers?
[When replying, cc me, please.]
Have a nice day,
Stepan Kasal
