hi there
i use cvs with emacs front pcl-cvs and have a little problemwith removed directories:
when i have removed a directory from the repository i get the message "New directory `dir' -- ignored" even though the cvs command string contains "-P". how can i get rid of this message?
can i ask cvs to suppress this message or can i tell emacs-pcl-cvs to hide this message somehow?
You have done "illegal" action - tweak the CVS repository by hand.
Now you should edit the CVS/Entries file referencing the directory in question since the CVS client desperately wants to find the missing directory !
You never touch the repository itself unless aware of consequences - the broken history is just the minor one. This also means that you do not touch the Attic directories.
You can only remove entries on local copy using the release&remove action, afterwards updating and checkouting using -P -d options to purge empty directories.
thanks, leo
You're welcome !
