David, Agreed. CVS has no commands for moving files or directories. It also has no command for removing directories from a repository. Subversion is in development at this time. It addresses these problems and others. Subversion http://subversion.tigris.org/ You may want to consider using generic names where possible, and use the commit message to indicate the version committed. http://cvs.leaf-project.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/leaf/devel/ddouthitt/base/e3/ Example: cvs ci -m "New checksum for new archive and new version..." \ e3-2.33.tar.gz.md5 Becomes: cvs ci -m "update e3 md5 to v2.33" e3.tar.gz.md5 This would allow updates without deleting files. -- Mike Noyes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://sourceforge.net/users/mhnoyes/ http://leaf-project.org/ ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Leaf-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-devel
