cvs will never delete repo files. Otherwise you couldn't checkout older versions of these files, that's why they are in the attic. You can even retrieve this dead version from a cvs client. If you really want them deleted you have to do it yourself with rm. They are also recorded in the history so you might want to change that too. bye Fabi _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
