Manfred, Thanks for taking a look. :-) Note: the enforce scripts were written by Jacob Moorman, and copied from the sitedocs cvsroot. I modified the directory and permissions files for our repository. http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/sitedocs/CVSROOT/ > You should not force all filenames (except Makefile) to lowercase. > Some kernel modules have uppercase letters in their names. > Also the README files are typically in uppercase. > An X terminal dist would have big problems with that rule. I believe this was done to address the following problem: Introduction to SourceForge.net Project CVS Services https://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=768&group_id=1 Case Sensitivity When a developer performs certain types of CVS operations, specifically "cvs add" and "cvs remove", CVS checks the listing of already-deleted files for that directory (i.e. the files in the Attic for that directory) to see if there is a match of the same filename. There is a difference between what MS Windows-based systems consider a match and what case-sensitive operating systems, such as Linux (which is used to provide the project CVS services), see as a match in these cases. If the filename match does not occur on the server, but there would be a case-insensitive match, the Windows-based CVS client will abort its operation and leave a broken stub file within the repository, which must be removed by SourceForge.net staff. > Attic should not be allowed as name. This sounds like a good idea. I'll try to talk with Jacob about it tomorrow. -- 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
