Hi All,
I'm trying (on winnt) trying to use cvs and ssh. Installed the latest
cygwin stuff. After this, I found (much to my surprised delight!) that both
ssh-1.2.27 and cvs-1.10.8 built just fine! Just the usual ./configure
followed by make! Nice ... Kudos to the cygwin folks, as well as to the
careful work in ssh and cvs. I know that careful portability is not fun (at
least not to me). Thanks!
Anyway, both of these work just fine separately. ssh behaves as I expect,
and cvs, using a remote CVSROOT like "raw@machine:/home/raw/repository" is
cool.
However, when I try this:
CVS_RSH=ssh
CVSROOT=:ext:raw@machine:/home/raw/repository
I get told that cvs got an unrecognized server response "ok^M". Sigh. Some
"friendly" piece of the assembly is inserting a ^M in the stream. I can't
believe it's the remote unix box! Surely ssh wouldn't to this. Indeed, if I
pipe ssh output into od, I don't see any ^M's there.
Thus, I'm currently suspecting something to do with how cvs runs ssh.
Anyone have a suggestion as to where I should look? Has someone else dealt
with this? I suspect some popen or somesuch isn't giving some
funky --NO_WEIRD_DOSISMS flag somewhere.
Cheers,
--Bob
