The strange thing here is that cvs is inconsequent. It should report the file from the entries as missing and recreate it (though not possible on Windows) and further should report an unknown file in the directory. But what it did is really updating the file, so it could make the connection between the different cases partly. Either it's case sensitive or it's not. And that was with a local repository, so no client/server issues. bye Fabi _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
