Howdy... The other day, one of the developers got a weird message about a specific file revision being locked by another user. After some hair pulling investigating, I found that there was an RCS lock in the ,v file in the repository. I did a cvs admin to unlock the file and all was well. Then I got to thinking about how I've been looking for a way to lock certain files in branches. 'Twas wondering if anyone's done anything like this. I mean, I could write a simple Perl script that parses revision numbers of branches and effectively locks those revision numbers. Problems would arise, I figger, when a file on a branch hasn't been changed, and still has the same revision number on various other branches. Alas! Oh, and why did RCS leave that lock in the file? Using cvs-1.9 client NT4/Server Solaris 2.x Thanks and cheers Rob
