Yes, there was a locking bug in CVS versions prior to 1.11.1 that could cause data loss during a tag or rtag operation. Once discovered, an emergency fix was made in 1.11.1 that prevented the data loss at the cost of locking all of the affected directories for the entire duration of the tag operation. A subsequent fix was made in 1.11.3 to go back to locking just one directory at a time, so upgrading to something resembling a current release of CVS (the current stable release is 1.11.13) should eliminate the lock contention problem you're seeing. -Larry Jones My upbringing is filled with inconsistent messages. -- Calvin _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
