The four error messages from the four reports:
Cannot initialize repository under existing CVSROOT: `/home'
Cannot initialize repository under existing CVSROOT:
`/home/rdieter1/cvs.fedoraproject.org'
Cannot initialize repository under existing CVSROOT:
`/pokerserver_test/pokersource'
Cannot initialize repository under existing CVSROOT: `/usr/src/navit'
I don't know why they did it. All I know is that
1) Once a user cd's into a subdirectory, the sibling directories of the
parent, grandparent etc. directory should not matter any more. That's
the normal expectation about functioning of programs.
2) This error messages was not present in previous versions of 'cvs'.
