Hi, There was a problem on our development machine yesterday which recursively processed subdirectories trying to erroneously check in thousands of items into RCS which did not need to be checked in.

Here one more thing diff command executed successfully when I ran it manually on the same set of files which were used for ci command. Note: These files are binary in nature, not the text files. Thanks for your help! --Sudhakar -----Original Message----- From: Hugh Sasse [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, January 13, 2011 1:06 PM To: Peram, Sudhakara Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: ci failed for large files (>2GB) - diff: memory exhausted Just wondering if you compiled the diff program with large file support?
