Manfred, I looked at this example again, and I think the sequence below is an accepatble solution for it. $ cp scriptb scriptc $ cvs add scriptc $ cvs ci -m "added scriptc old filename was scriptb" scriptc $ rm scriptb $ cvs remove scriptb $ cvs ci -m "removed scriptb new filename is scriptc" scriptb I believe this will leave the repository in a correct state, and solve the older version retrieval problem. -- Mike Noyes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://sourceforge.net/users/mhnoyes/ http://leaf-project.org/ ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek PC Mods, Computing goodies, cases & more http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Leaf-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-devel
