RE: removing a directory
Hi Jaya If you really don't want it to exist in the repository you'll have to delete it from the repository. Proceed with care!

Re: Problem with partially lost branch information

Most likely, there is at least one file in each of those directories
where that tag is a revision tag rather than a branch tag.
I have found a few files with this problem: I used the cvs graphing
capability of WinCVS to look for tags instead of branches, but that was
very time consuming.
I then tried this approach: a file with the branch tag set should have a
cvs version number with a zero in it; one of the adminstrative numbers.
I thus did this from the command line:
find . -type f -exec sh -c cvs -q log {} | grep
forv_ver1_020311-branch \; -print 2/dev/null |less
Which produces a list with along these lines:
./itp/build/b_wceupdate.bat
forv_ver1_020311-branch: 1.2.0.8
./itp/build/b_wceupdate2800.bat
forv_ver1_020311-branch: 1.26.0.2
A rather brutal approach, you'll agree. Anyway, the odd thing is that I
have now rid this structure of files with a wrong tagging but the error
still is there. I wonder: could there be files in the Attic that are
screwing up my directory structure?
Furthermore: is my very-large-ax approach a good was of searching for
this error? It there are files in the Attic that are acting up, how am I
going to find them? Should I search on the raw RCS files in the
repository instead? How do I adapt my script to do that? (I'm not fluent
in RCS at all)

Re: check_cvs.pl script
That script seems like something that just escaped Cisco captivity (co the header). Is there a plan to release it under a license of some kind? Can I use it in my business?

Re: check_cvs.pl script
Yes you can use it in your business, it's not escaped.

That's just the approach I'd have taken; but ouch! I bet it took
a *long* time. Try it this way instead:
cvs log | egrep '^Working file:|forv_ver1_020311-branch'
It produces similar output:
Working file: itp/build/b_wceupdate.bat
forv_ver1_020311-branch: 1.2.0.8
Working file: itp/build/foobar.bat
Working file: itp/build/b_wceupdate2800.bat
forv_ver1_020311-branch: 1.26.0.2
Advantages:
- You'll get the Attic files too, since cvs log with no
arguments DOES display deleted files (caveat; I know that's
true of 1.11.2.1, and I'm fairly sure it's been true for a
long time, but I can't say for sure that it's true of all
versions)
- It's *lots* faster. Your way forks at least a couple of
processes per file.
Disadvantage:
- There'll be spurious filename lines for files without the
tag, e.g. the foobar.bat line in the above sample
Anyway, the odd thing is that I
have now rid this structure of files with a wrong tagging but the error
still is there. I wonder: could there be files in the Attic that are
screwing up my directory structure?
Maybe. Or maybe you just need to repair the CVS state (fix the
CVS/Tag files or whatever it was) now that the underlying
condition has gone away (unless you've already tried that; you
don't say).
Furthermore: is my very-large-ax approach a good was of searching for
this error?
Absolutely. Just sub-optimally implemented :-)
It there are files in the Attic that are acting up, how am I
going to find them? Should I search on the raw RCS files in the
repository instead? How do I adapt my script to do that? (I'm not fluent
in RCS at all)
cvs log is a wrapper for rlog. So it'd be something like:
find $CVSROOT/itp -type f -name *,v | xargs rlog | egrep ...
Be warned that this will fail for pathnames containing shell
metacharacters, including spaces (those won't be a problem for
either your original approach or for my cvs log | grep one).
You can either work around that manually, or use GNU findutils as
I've described here recently (search the archives for -print0
[sic]).

Changing CVSROOT in CVS/Root of working directory
Hi I am facing a problem. Actually, right now our DNS is down so for running client server cvs,I am adding IP address of the clients as entries in the /etc/hosts file of the machine where cvs server is running.But we all have previously checked out working directories;the old CVSROOT is no longer valid;instead of the server name we are giving server ip address and updated using cvs -d $CVSROOT update Now in all CVS/Root directories, the new root has replaced the old one so we no longer have to use -d each time.But in one machine, this is not happening.CVS is always reading old CVSROOT and is giving error 'there is no machine by that name' I changed CVSROOT in the autoexec file, rebooted that machine and did update with -d but in CVS/Root file, the old CVSROOT remains.How do I change this?The client is win 98 machine and cvs client is command prompt. __ Do you Yahoo!?

Re:removing a directory
In CVS you can't really remove a directory using a cvs command. 1.cvs rm all the files in the directory and at the time of checkout,use cvs -p co to prune any empty directories. You may set this as a default option in .cvsrc file. 2.If you really do want to remove the directory, just remove it manually from the repository and do a fresh checkout. removing a directory Jaya Kumari [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon, 25 Nov 2002 12:51:12 +0530 Previous message: Managing Web Page Components with CVS Next message: removing a directory Messages sorted by: [ date ] [ thread ] [ subject ] [ author ] Hi all, Pls. help to delete a directory with a hierchary of files.

cvs precommit check utility?
Hello, I have a need to develop a mildly sophisticated pre-commit script to validate that certain users are working on certain branches and want/need to maintain the ability to control check-ins at various periods during development to directories on a branch-by-branch and developer-by-developer basis. I have not been able to find any notable examples of pre-commit scripts to useas examples to accelerate the development. Any pointers to good resources or examples to use for this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, -Don Norton

I wish ??cvs add?? has a ??-R?? option. Please do not send HTML mail to technical mailing lists. As far as CVS not adding everything new in a tree, this is deliberate. This prevents the inadvertent adding of intermediate files and other files that you would not wish to version control. This requires you to decide to commit each file. While this is inconvenient, it tends to be, in practice, much less inconvenient than the alternative. /|/|ike ___ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
