I ran into a problem with CVS, during exports: Concurrent Versions System (CVS) 1.11 (client)
Here is the sequence of events: => I export the current versions of the project (sapapac_mbo, tag = R_1_1) to a test directory (does not exist) # cvs export -r R_1_1 -d test sapapac_mbo cvs export: Updating test U test/V U test/syscheck U test/syscheck.diffs U test/syscheck.pm => Check the version of the program (embedded in the code) # grep "^#V#" test/V #V# Version 1.6 => remove the directory # rm -rf test => remove the files that are part of the project from the next target directory, which exists and has other files in it # rm bin/V bin/syscheck bin/syscheck.diffs bin/syscheck.pm => export the project, this time to directory bin # cvs export -r R_1_1 -d bin sapapac_mbo cvs export: Updating bin U bin/V U bin/syscheck U bin/syscheck.diffs U bin/syscheck.pm => Check the version of the program V again (same as before - what it should be) # grep "^#V#" bin/V #V# Version 1.6 => I restore an old copy of the program # mv bin_old/V bin => Check the old version (1.5 - what it should be) # grep "^#V#" bin/V #V# Version 1.5 => export the project again, but this time the files already exist! # cvs export -r R_1_1 -d bin sapapac_mbo cvs export: Updating bin cvs export: move away bin/V; it is in the way C bin/V cvs export: move away bin/syscheck; it is in the way C bin/syscheck cvs export: move away bin/syscheck.diffs; it is in the way C bin/syscheck.diffs cvs export: move away bin/syscheck.pm; it is in the way C bin/syscheck.pm => Check the version of the V program !! 1.5 instead of 1.6 !! # grep "^#V#" bin/V #V# Version 1.5 The message that CVS gives me leads me to believe that the old file was removed and the new one put in it's place, but that is not the case!?!?
