'I am not a number' -- Number Six, from 'The Prisoner' Are you truly a number? That out of the way, I write as the closest thing to a list admin which this list has. The list is heavily spammed, and the target of automatic 'spambots'. A couple years ago, when I started doing list admin, I spent several days getting the attention of the upstream server admins, simply to undertake getting rights in the Mailman. I have writen three following times on issues which have arisen, with simply no response from the upstream admins. Sad but true. The list is de-spamed (largely) by a pair of policies -- limit the size of posts (which is set low enough that much multi-part (mime-laden) email is caught and held; and posts limited are to subscribers only. Because of the huge spam and held load, I do not pick through that cesspool of held posts, and they are functionally deleted. So one answer is that I cannot add a further explicit demimeing (in the fashion as suggested). As a matter of good news, the available de-mimeing options within Mailman are enabled. More broadly, the issue of demimeing and de-htmlizing email has been done by me locally for years as part of my inbound filters. That option exists for anyone willing to take control of their email stream; I am reasonably indifferent to a preson's complaint who says that they cannot -- for really, email addresses and domains, and the necessary compute resources to subscribe an alternative (filtered) email address are essentially freely available these days -- as 'cannot' really means they _will not_ take ownership of their own infosec. - Russ Herrold ___ Info-cvs mailing list Info-cvs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
a newbie facing tagging problem
Title: a newbie facing tagging problem Hi, I am newbie in using cvs. I am using a cvs configured by somebody else. I am facing a problem with the cvs setup as follows: I have remote repository When we tag main directory of a project it is shown that For xyz/abcsys/src/base/vlan/Makefile HEAD and other tags are shown correctly. Branch:MAIN inside vlan directory there is another vlan sub directory. But for files in this: For xyz/abcsys/src/base/vlan/vlan/Makefile Only HEAD tag is shown. Branch:MAIN Due this I am facing tremendeous problem in building old versions. What could be the cause/solution for the problem. Am I alone who has faced this problem?

The problem is that the files in that directory have never been tagged. From you description, it's not clear whether you're trying to apply a new tag or you're trying to use a tag that was applied some time in the past. If the problem is with a new tag that you applied using cvs tag, it would appear that your working directory has become corrupted in some way such that CVS commands don't know that that directory exists. If there aren't any changes in your working directory that you need, the simplest fix is to delete it and do a new checkout. Otherwise, check the CVS/Entries file in the parent vlan directory -- it should contain an entry for the vlan subdirectory, which you can add by hand if necessary. If the problem is with an old tag, the problem is that the directory was never tagged in the first place and there's nothing you can do now to fix it other than trying to recreate the correct state of the directory (perhaps by updating to a particular date/time) and applying the tag now. -Larry Jones It's going to be a long year. -- Calvin ___ Info-cvs mailing list Info-cvs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs

Tagging problem in CVS - weird filenames

I have a strange tagging problem I have started tagging at the same time to same Repository from 2 different machines with different tag names and after tag completed found that few of the files one of the tag has been applied and few of the files the second tag got appiled and on rest of the files both the tag got applied Can anybody tell me what is the root cause of the problem and how we can overcome this problem.

What version(s) of CVS are you running? (Type cvs version on each machine in the working directory where you did the tag.) There was a bug in some older versions of CVS where the RCS files were not locked correctly during tag operations, which could cause exactly that problem. I strongly suggest upgrading to 1.11.4. -Larry Jones I've never seen a sled catch fire before. -- Hobbes ___ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs

Eric Siegerman writes: Could an NFS-mounted repo with screwed-up locking lead to these symptoms (valid ,v files but with tags applied inconsistently), or would the individual ,v files end up broken instead? NFS problems almost always result in broken RCS files. The most common situation by far (in fact, it's the only one that I can remember ever being reported) is that some of the data gets lost between the client and the disk file resulting in a block of binary zeros in the RCS file in lieu of the correct data. The only NFS locking problem (and it is, so far as I know, only a theoretical problem; I've never heard a report of it actually occurring in practice) is of the safe variety -- it prevents *anyone* from modifying the file rather than allowing multiple people to modify it at the same time. -Larry Jones I've got PLENTY of common sense!

Tagging problem
Hi, I have a CVS system running on Linux w/o any problems since last 3 years. Recently whenever I try to select all files and tag them from my CVS Client it just hangs and I have to kill the process. The other functions like check in/ check out seem to be running fine. I do not have any clue as to what is going wrong.

Tagging Problem
Hi There, I have a problem in Tagging a particular branch. But i am able to tag a module. Scenario is like this : Say i have a module i set the tag with command (cvs rtag tagName moduleName). Now Say i have 2 branches(B1 B2) in this module if u run (cvs status -v) then both of these branches shows that they have that tagName associated with them. Now if i want to merge branch B1 with the other one B2 then say branch B1 remains as such where as other one B2 is updated after merge. Now what if i want to see the code(i.e code before merging) for the branch which got updated after merge(B2). I thought if i can tag branch B2 before merging then i can see the original code(i.e before merging) with command (cvs checkout -r tagName moduleName). Pls suggest me (1) what i think is Ok or not. (2) How to tag a branch of a particular module. (3)Any other way to achieve the same. Thanx sukh ___ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
