Hi.

I am using cvsnt 2.0.0 on the server and on the client. And WinCVS
1.3.12.1.

Recently i have tried to retrieve and old revision of a binary file
and tried with the next command: update -p -r TAG binary.file (The command
was launch through WinCVS, with the graph and "Retrieve revision"). But
the output file (binary.file#TAG) doesn't was the real file, its size
wasn't correct. So i tried a checkout command and then the file was 
correct.

Is It caused because the binary files are not mergeables???

I think this option would be useful.

Thanks.

Nacho.
