Using CVS version 1.10.5
CVS checkout to specified directory does not appear to function correctly
via client/sever.
While attempting to checkout a file from the CVS repository (on the server)
to the current working directory on the client using the following command
:
cvs -d server:/CVSREP co -d . mbd/common/boot/makefile
produces the following error
cvs server: existing repository /CVSREP does not match
/CVSREP/mbd/common/boot
cvs server: ignoring module mbd/common/boot/makefile
This error message appears to suggest that the -d argument which belongs to
the co part is being passed to the server and evaluated on the server.
Shouldn't the directory which we are checking out to be on the client
machine?
Is this a bug in CVS or am I missing something?
Dougie.
