Hi,

I had one original problem, and now I have two.  Here they are, 
in order:


Original problem: I have a binary file that I'd like to store in 
CVS.  It's a file used on Mac OS X, and needs to have 
type/creator codes set properly in the filesystem.  These codes 
don't survive a pass through the CVS repository (they are empty 
when the file is checked out).

So I figured I could tell CVS to execute the command 
"/Developer/Tools/SetFile -t ENDB -c ENDN %s" whenever it 
updates the file locally.  However, I can't figure out how to do 
this.  When I tried to add them to my CVSROOT/cvswrappers file, 
I started getting the error "cvs [server aborted]: -t/-f 
wrappers not supported by this version of CVS".  How can I solve 
this problem?

I've got a remote repository that I access over SSH.


Second problem: now my CVSROOT/cvswrappers file is unusable 
because of the above error, and I can't commit changes in order 
to fix it - because of the same error.  How can I fix it if I 
can't commit changes?

I didn't anticipate this problem, because the cvswrappers file 
shouldn't be matched by the wildcard I used.  Here's what I 
committed in it:

  TC*References -f '/Developer/Tools/SetFile -t ENDB "%s"'
