Re: directory not relative within the depository

2003-04-02 Thread jda 


(CVS will create the intermediate directories if necessary.)

So, to go into more detail, the directory tree looks like:

Foo
package1Dir
foo1.java
foo2.java
package2Dir
foo3.java
foo4.java
package3Dir
..and so on
This structure will be preserved when importing?
(I was hoping, but hadn't really thought about it before)

Yes.  To edit your example slightly, you're starting with a
newly-inited repo in /usr/local/cvs-repository, and project
source on a CD:
/mnt/cdrom/Foo/
package1Dir/
foo1.java
foo2.java
package2Dir/
foo3.java
foo4.java


The (variant) commands I gave yesterday:
cd /mnt/cdrom/Foo
cvs import -m Imported sources MyProject/something/Foo MyCompany start  

will give you this in the repo:
/usr/local/cvs-repository/
CVSROOT/
...
MyProject/
something/
Foo/
package1Dir/
foo1.java,v
foo2.java,v
package2Dir/
foo3.java,v
foo4.java,v

directory not relative within the depository

2003-04-01 Thread jdaues 
Newbie error:

Trying to create a project from source code
Source code is on cdrom in /mnt/cdrom/Foo/
CVSROOT is set to /usr/local/cvs-repository

Created repository with:
cvs -d /usr/local/cvs-repository init
Create /usr/local/cvs-repository/Foo

Command is (after 3.1.1. in cederqvist):
cvs import -m Imported sources /mnt/cdrom/Foo MyCompany start
Error is:
cvs [import aborted]: directory /mnt/cdrom/Foo not relative within the 
repository

What am I doing wrong?
(Google search reveals little)

Ok so far.

 Create /usr/local/cvs-repository/Foo
 
 Command is (after 3.1.1. in cederqvist):
 cvs import -m Imported sources /mnt/cdrom/Foo MyCompany start

The first argument isn't where to find the input files, but where
within the repository to put the results.  It must be a relative
pathname, and is interpreted relative to CVSROOT.  The source for
cvs import is always the current directory.

So what you wanted was something like:
cd /mnt/cdrom/Foo
cvs import -m Imported sources Foo MyCompany start

That argument can have more than one level.  You could say:
cvs import -m Imported sources MyProject/something/Foo MyCompany start
if you wanted the stuff to end up deeper inside the repo.  (CVS
will create the intermediate directories if necessary.)
