Please try > this patch (or the current CVS): Well, I do the easy part, you're doing the invaluable part of providing us all with a great tool -- tramp. I've pulled the current version from CVS, so will let you know if I see the issue again. I've been slightly concerned that some of my bash history files are filling up with tramp commands, and I've increased the size to 1000 so that I can see the complete log of commands on the remote machine. (The debug file does have $ # Waiting 30s for `HISTFILE=$HOME/.tramp_history; HISTSIZE=1' ) and on one of the machines (a Linux box) I only see the expected exec env 'PS1=$ ' /bin/sh I'll send more details if I managed to get more conclusive evidence. <snip> > > I would suggest that the page is updated to either get people to set > > the CVSROOT, or to specify the root on the command for update. > > It is only necessary to specify the repository on the first checkout > (which needs to be done using co instead of update). > > Note that the manual says to cd to the ~/emacs/tramp directory.

I realise the error of my ways, I forgot that I'd tar'ed the lisp files from my CVS directory into my emacs area, so was using cvs update -d in the wrong directory, and so no files were updated.
