Not if done correctly. 3 is perfectly safe, both 1 and 2 require care. In the case of 1, why are you copying the directory? Do you really want two completely independent copies of the code in the repository? If you are planning to move the directory, it is much better to do just that rather than to copy the tree and then delete the original. In either case, you must ensure that no commits are in progress for the tree before you begin the move/copy and that no subsequent commits are allowed until the operation is complete. In the case of 2, why would you want to do that by hand instead of using CVS (or even RCS)? If you do chose to do it by hand (or with RCS rather than CVS), the same considerations about commits apply as in case 1. -Larry Jones When you're as far ahead of the class as I am, it doesn't take much time. -- Calvin _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
