I can't say that I have a solution, but I can say that I have noticed this
behavior as well. Possible work around for the diff function: use a
different "diff" program. We tend to use windiff (part of the NT Resource
kit, and included with most Microsoft development projects).
The last time I checked (I don't know if this is still true, check the
license), if one person had a license for the Resource kit, everyone else in
the organization could use the files associated with it.

Subject: WinCVS: # of lines changes incorrect and inconsistent
Hello,
I am using WinCVS as a client tool to access CVS Server in UNIX.
Sometimes when you add 1 line to a 900-line file and the change was
interpreted as adding 901 lines and removing 900 lines.
I have tried it in both UNIX using CVS and WinCVS and sometimes I can
duplicate this problem; other times I can't.
In order to use diff function, which is important to our developers in
the coding process, we really need CVS to recognize # of lines changed
correctly.
Could anyone shed some light as to why this is happening from time to
time and how to work around it? Thanks.
Veronica
