Hi, my $.02 on WinCVS...
If the import of the files into the cvs module is done with a win32 system, you can use WinCVS to make your life easier ;^) http://www.wincvs.org/ WinCVS has got a really nice "Import Module" option (menu': "create/import module"). It scans the selected directory and all its children and automatically build the import options for all the discovered file types (text, binary, unicode, etc). Here's the scan result from the import module operation on my local dbforms directory: cvs import -I ! -I CVS -W "*.war -k 'b'" -W "*.zip -k 'b'" -W "*.png -k 'b'" -W "*.jar -k 'b'" -m "my import message" dbforms avendor arelease From the client side, WinCVS can be also configured to checkout text files with the unix linefeed (0xa char) or the windows lf (2 chars) I use a Windows2000 system as the "desktop" system and a Debian Linux server, and I have no problems at all ;^) Hope it could be useful.
