To the OP: If your server already has a CVS server (and, thus, a CVSROOT directory) and you want to merge both repositories into one, make sure you do NOT move that directory over to the server, but make sure you MERGE them in an appropriate way. If you just overwrite the old CVSROOT, you might get trouble with the data which is already stored on the server! Apart from this, it works exactly like you thought (and Pierre confirmed). Obviously, its best if you do not try to merge two cvs servers into one. Regards, Spiro. -- Spiro R.
