Hello,
I have a cvs repository that we use without any apparent issue. I was trying
to do some evaluation of other SCMs out there (subversion and git), and I had
problems trying to use their cvs import utilities on my cvs repo. They
complained about corruption.
So, I tried running the validate-repo script on my cvs repo, and I was a bit
dismayed to find that it reported the following:
Total Files: 57514 Corrupted files: 57484 Invalid revs: 0 Extra files: 6
Ignored Files: 24
What baffles me is that we use this cvs repository every day without noticing
any problems.
I am soliciting any advice regarding this. Do I really have a problem? How can
I find out more about what the corruption is?
Is your server CVS or CVSNT?
It's possible that the corruption may be, for example, a bad log message
in an ancient revision of the file. I'm just guessing, though.
Try using the --verbose option to validate-repo and see if that helps
shed some light on it.
