I recently had to move my project from one machine to another. All my files,

including my CVS directory went from "d:\ehusby" to "e:\ehusby". I did not
realize
that CVS stored in the CVS\Root file that actual directory spec, I naively
assumed
that it would get the proper value from the CVSROOT environment variable.
But CVS is
not the real issue here.

Before I discovered the source of the problem, I ran the IDEA CVS Diff on a
file that I had
edited and received the message box "The files are identical", which I knew
was wrong.
When I examined the CVS Console output, I saw the message

D:\apps\cvs1-11\cvs.exe diff -r HEAD GameDescriptorTests.java
cvs.exe [diff aborted]: d:\ehusby\cvsroot/CVSROOT: No such file or directory

So the problem is IDEA reporting success when the command failed. 

I will be fixing up my CVS\Root files.
