Hi,
I want to manage a special machine's tree with cvs, but when trying to import the tree with cvs import(... ), cvs aborts soon with this message: cvs [import aborted]: reading dev/eda: No such device or address
:-(
How do I bypass this? I know of the cvsignore facility but AFAIK it can
ignore only filenames patterns, not complete directories/directory
regexp's. My current solution is keeping the /dev directory out of the
tree, moving it back into the tree only when necessary. This works, but
it's ugly... .
There is more then one way to Ignore a file in CVS:
* You can place a .cvsignore file in the directory where the file you want to ignore.
* You can use the -I switch to the cvs import command.
* You can use the CVSROOT/cvsignore to match pattern (this is the one you where talking about).
I also tried today the cvswrappers but it too doesn't support filtering directories -
only file names patterns.
Well, I guess that for now I'll stick with my ugly solution. Why switch to another ugly
solution when you know your's work?... ;-) (but thanks anyway, and thanks to the infamous Cabal-non-Leader too! ;-)
Boaz.
Anyone knows how to do this nicely?
thanks, Boaz.
