Right, status requires a working directory.

If it does, then simply exploding the tarball creates a bona fide working directory, you don't have to do anything special. -Larry Jones Apparently I was misinformed. -- Calvin _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
