Re: Strange message from CVS...
Note that if you work with *big* CVS trees, deleting the val-tags file can make checkouts based on tags (including branch tags) take a long time. (By big I mean hundreds of directories, thousands of files.) We've found that adding new tags to val-tags before running checkouts or merges using them saves a lot of time. Does anyone know why cvs doesn't do that by default? Or the reason val-tags exists in the first place? thanks, -Brian On Wed, Apr 10, 2002 at 12:13:50AM -0400, Larry Jones wrote: Hamid Ghassemi writes: $ cvs update -r maint42 cvs server: duplicate key found for `y' Your CVSROOT/val-tags file has become corrupted.

Re: cvs commit problem
It is a permission problem on the server side, though it isn't
completely clear without more investigation what it is.
If you don't mind a little nitty-gritty, you can figure out exactly
what is happening by tracing your cvs pserver. What I do is open a
second port on the server as follows (you can add this to the end of
your /etc/xinetd.d/cvspserver file--it will not affect cvspserver):
service cvspserver-trace
{
disable = no
socket_type = stream
protocol= tcp
port= 2402
wait= no
user= root
passenv =
server = /usr/bin/strace
server_args = -o /tmp/pserver.strace -f /usr/bin/cvs -f
--allow-root=/cvsroot pserver
}
Substitute your path to cvs and the --allow-root(s) to match your
cvspserver config.
Restart xinetd with the command
$ service xinetd restart
Check /var/log/messages for xinetd error messages to be sure there are
no errors in your config.
Now you can set CVSTRACE=:pserver:$[EMAIL PROTECTED]:2402/cvsroot in
your client environment and
$ cvs -d $CVSTRACE login
$ cvs -d $CVSTRACE commit
(You will see a couple of interesting complaints from cvs regarding
unexpected responses from server--you can safely ignore those. That's
just strace making noise about child processes when it shouldn't.)
The trace of the most recent pserver session will be on the server in
file /tmp/pserver.strace. Take a look over that to see if you can
identify the point where the error occurs. The end of the file will
have a bunch of cleanup--removing tmp files and directories. The error
should be very shortly before that. If you're stumped, check with your
local linux guru, or send it my way and I'll try to decipher it.
good luck,
-Brian

--- Reagan Penner [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello, I am new to the cvs edit command so please bear with me. From what I understand more than one user should be able to tag the same file for editing. My problem is that when user X applies cvs edit against a file, all files within the current directory become locked to cvs edit. Meaning that if X has file1 tagged for editing then user Y can't tag any files in file1's directory for editing. Here is a copy of the cvs command error output: cvs edit: cannot write /blah/projX/cvs/package_path/CVS/fileattr: Permission denied this only happens if someone other than the original issuer of the cvs edit command tries to apply cvs edit to another file in the same directory. This looks like a permissions problem rather than a CVS problem. My guess is that user X has a restrictive umask setting.

Re: why does wincvs show all files as modified
Hi, This is a follow-up to an old thread about WinCVS showing files as locally modified when they haven't been changed in the working copy. We're using WinCVS 1.2 on Windows NT, solely using the CVS client bundled with WinCVS. Our working copies are only managed through the GUI. No command-line checkouts or anything. Shortly after the Daylight Savings Time switch (I'm in the U.S.), I got the all-locally-modified problem that others have described. I checked the timestamps in the CVS/Entries file, and they seemed somewhat strange. Most of them had the correct UTC time, but some seemed to be off by an hour. After doing a status on the directory, these incorrect timestamps all changed by an hour, to the correct UTC time. So I'm experiencing the same daylight-savings timestamp bug already described in this thread. The problem is clearly not the timestamp of the file on disk, nor how WinCVS interprets the timestamps, but the checkout or update that initially sets the CVS/Entries timestamps. The main thing I wanted to point out to the newsgroup is that taking the status of the directory is a very simple workaround, and it's what I've recommended to our developers. You don't have to change the WinCVS installation or blow away your working copy. Whenever I have suspicious locally modified files in WinCVS, the first thing I do is status the directory.

how to checkout partly tagged source?
Hi, all!

Project Management and CVS
A couple of questions about CVS and Project Management; any input is appreciated. If a project is made up of several discrete modules, how do you coordinate a release that would incorporate bits from each module? I can understand branching at each release in each module and tagging the last version from the previous branch as a release, but is that the only way? Can you somehow do a search on tags or something to pull a release together with one command rather than manually checking-out individual modules? For example, if I have a project that incorporates several discrete CVS modules and each part of the module destined for release 1.0 of the software package is tagged Version 1.0 Software is there some way I can use CVS to pull all the parts of the 1.0 release from the repository? Must I checkout an entire module, or can I check out individual files from a module perhaps using reserved checkout on file_1 of MY_MODULE and letting others checkout file2 and file3 from MY_MODULE?

I assumed that it would overwrite the 1.1 with 1.2, but I was able to download both. Looking at the directory of my repository, I only see the file that is the size of 1.2. How is this? CVS uses RCS files, which treat binary data the same way text, using line by line diffs to condense the storage, which is poorly suited for binary data. Sometimes it nevertheless achieves a saving. The head revision of a file (tip of the main trunk) is stored verbatim. All the other versions are expressed as a chain of deltas relative to this. The rest of the main trunk is a sequence of reverse deltas. Along branches, there are forward deltas from the branchpoints to the tips. So in your case, the RCS file has stored a copy of version 1.2 of your binary file. Version 1.1 is retrieved as a set of line delete or add operations applied to 1.2. You lucked out; this set of operations turned out to be small, so your whole RCS file is not much larger than the checkout size of 1.2. -- Meta-CVS: solid version control tool with directory structure versioning. http://users.footprints.net/~kaz/mcvs.html http://freshmeat.net/projects/mcvs ___ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs

Hello All, Actually I have 2 question: Q1: how to delete a subdir from repository? I tried it as below: -delete all the files in the subdir d - issue cvs rm d, then cvs commit d but it seems that the subdir d still exist in the repository atleast CVSWeb shows it. Q2: How to import symlink into CVS? I imported a project, which have several symlinks (pointing to the files exist within imported project dir). However at checkout those symlinks disapeared. Do you have any tip on how to keep this symlinks?

CVS Commit Problem
I'm trying to use CVS in my Sun Forte for Java environment, which is a PC running Windows 2000, networked to a LINUX Box, and I use SAMBA to mount the LINUX directories locally to my PC, including the CVSROOT directory. I have a cvs executable installed on my PC. I am using the built-in GUI commands in FORTE to run CVS. I mounted the CVS filesystem okay, and set up my working directory okay. I checked out all of the files in the project okay. I changed a file locally, and a refresh occurred and noted in my window that my local file had been modified in the FORTE environment. I now tried to commit the modified file back into the CVS directory on the LINUX box. CVS comes back with the following failure: cvs.exe commit: notice: main loop with CVSROOT=:local:H:\cvs - checkout (H:\cvs/stst/parm/SPPFS_MSG_IDS.xml,v, 1.5, , (function)) - ParseInfo(H:\cvs/CVSROOT/commitinfo, stst/parm, ALL) - ParseInfo(H:\cvs/CVSROOT/verifymsg, stst/parm, not ALL) - unlink(C:\DOCUME~1\bgoan.EVG\LOCALS~1\Temp\2) - checkout (H:\cvs/stst/parm/SPPFS_MSG_IDS.xml,v, 1.5, -ko, C:\DOCUME~1\bgoan.EVG\LOCALS~1\Temp\48) - rename(H:\cvs/stst/parm/,SPPFS_MSG_IDS.xml,,H:\cvs/stst/parm/SPPFS_MSG_IDS.x ml,v) cvs.exe [commit aborted]: cannot rename file H:\cvs/stst/parm/,SPPFS_MSG_IDS.xml, to H:\cvs/stst/parm/SPPFS_MSG_IDS.xml,v: File exists - unlink(H:\cvs/stst/parm/,SPPFS_MSG_IDS.xml,) This is the only CVS command that appears to be failing.
