I realise this has been asked/reported many times before.
When doing a cvs import, it ignores directories called "core" by default,
when probably the original intention was to ignore core files. In my
searches, I have noticed this problem has always existed in CVS, and has been
reported way back in 95. I couldn't find any responses to the bug reports
though.
I have recently done some imports of some third party softwares, and a
surprising number of them have a "core" directory. I have also had to deal
with "tags" directories too. I know the workaround is to use -I \! on the
command line.
Is it the case that the CVS developers have decided not to change this
behaviour, for backward compatibility reasons?
