So, I have a CVS archive, and I want to start making local modifications. What I want to do is check out a workspace of the original code (which I've already done). I only have anon pserver access, I can't get the _actual_ repository, only a workspace copy. That's fine; I only want to pull snapshots every so often into my copy anyway. Then, I want to create a new module using this workspace as the initial code, on a vendor branch. No problem, right? Here's the trick: there are a large number of binary files in the workspace, and I need the -kb flag on those files to be accurately entered into my copy. Obviously the info I need is right there, in my CVS/Entries file. But I don't think cvs import will grok that and DTRT for me. Does anyone have any hints as to how to import a vendor branch from a CVS workspace, while preserving special flags like -kb? Thanks! I'm using CVS 1.11 on a Debian GNU/Linux box. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
