   Am I doing something wrong, or is cvs just down?
CVS access has been changed some time ago.  Use
:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/vim as
cvsroot.

RE: svn, cvs

2006-06-17 Thread Suresh Govindachar 

  Based on Sir Raorn's reply, I tried:

  C:\home\suresh\develop\vim\cvsc:\opt\cvs\cvs -z3 -d:pserver:[EMAIL 
PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/vim checkout vim7

  which did lots of stuff and ended with:

  U vim7/src/xxd/xxd.c
  cvs checkout: dying gasps from vim.cvs.sourceforge.net unexpected

  Repeating the command resulted in the same message:
  
  cvs checkout: Updating vim7/src/xxd
  cvs checkout: dying gasps from vim.cvs.sourceforge.net unexpected

  Doing only update as follows:

  C:\home\suresh\develop\vim\cvsc:\opt\cvs\cvs -z3 -d:pserver:[EMAIL 
PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/vim  update

  resulted in the same message:

  cvs update: Updating vim7/src/xxd
  cvs update: dying gasps from vim.cvs.sourceforge.net unexpected

  Is this normal?  If not, what should I do?

  Thanks,

   If CVS is sick, 
  
  That's my question -- does that message mean cvs is sick or is
  that message a normal termination message from cvs?  

   you can always fall back on good old FTP (or even HTTP): 

  The reason for fetching from cvs is to avoid having to patch.
  (and the reason for not using svn is that svn is out-of-date, 
  and svn differes from Bram's cvs by CR/LF in some files).

There were concerns about switching over to Subversion when we first 
started using it a few months ago, just before Vim 7.0 released. Are 
those concerns still valid?
