I'm a newbie cvs admin (yeah, I know... everyone run in horror!) having troubles getting any ampersand module to work. We'd like to share common lib files across project directories, and from my searching around, I figured ampersand modules were the best way to do it. So I set up a test respository that looks like the one we want to use with this kind of structure: software/ ---product-name/ ------common/ ------proc_1/ ------proc_2/ So what I _really_ want is to have selected files from "common" check out in the root of proc_1 & proc_2, but I gather from the docs that the best I can get is to have them in a subdir of proc_1 & proc_2, so I'll settle for that. So I made my modules file as follows: common software/product-name/common proc_1 software/product-name/proc_1 $common Using this setup, the "common" module checks out as expected, but checkout of the proc_1 module fails, giving me this error (using both wincvs and cvs): cvs server: warning: new-born proc_1/$common has disappeared I'm using cvsnt 2.0.2.
