I updated the CVSNT sandbox I have here and looked at Changelog, so I found that supposedly the fix to cvs export -N is done in the file src/checkout.c rev 1.26.2.7. This is located between tags CVSNT_2_0_3 and CVSNT_2_0_5 (what happened to CVSNT_2_0_4?). So it seems like the "solution" should be there from release 2.0.5 at least. Yet I cannot get it to work using 2.0.8 on both client and server and now also Glen Starret report the same behaviour. So I think that this is not resolved or I am doing something illegal, which seems strange since simply changing the client version back to b72 fixes the problem (but is unsatisfactory for a number of other resons of course). /Bo On Tue, 12 Aug 2003 19:54:50 +0200, "Bo Berglund" <Bo.Berglund at system3r.se> wrote: >And to answer myself the question asked: >I have now updated the server as wll to 2.0.8 and there is no change. >With 2.0.8 on both client and server the cvs export does not respect the -N flag. >If I switch back to b72 on the client side again I have the correct behaviour. > >So there is no change on the most recent release available on the website. > >/Bo > >-----Original Message----- >From: Bo Berglund >Sent: den 12 augusti 2003 19:35 >To: cvsnt at cvsnt.org cvsnt downloads at march-hare.com @CVSNT on Twitter CVSNT on Facebook >Subject: RE: [cvsnt] Repeat issue: Export doesnt work properly >anymore(2.0.4and 2.0.8) > > >OK maybe it is about *both* the server and the client then: > >C:\ADM\CMPocket>cvs ver >Client: Concurrent Versions System (CVSNT) 2.0.8 (client/server) >Server: Concurrent Versions System (CVSNT) 2.0.4 (client/server) > >I have changed on the client side since this is what seemed to break things. >If I have 2.0.4 on the server and use b72 on client all works OK >If I have 2.0.4 on server and any 2.0.x on client I get the error > >Is there a new interaction between the server and client that was not there >before 2.0.x that can explain this? > >Do I need to upgrade the server to 2.0.8 to make it work? > >Will it then work for all client versions? > >Thanks, >Bo > >-----Original Message----- >From: Tony Hoyle [mailto:tmh at nodomain.org] >Sent: den 12 augusti 2003 18:36 >To: cvsnt at cvsnt.org cvsnt downloads at march-hare.com @CVSNT on Twitter CVSNT on Facebook >Subject: Re: [cvsnt] Repeat issue: Export doesnt work properly anymore >(2.0.4and 2.0.8) > > >On Tue, 12 Aug 2003 18:08:44 +0200, "Bo Berglund" <Bo.Berglund at system3r.se> >wrote: > >>Example: >>cvs export -r HEAD -d WSMDB-CS -N Drivers/sentinel >>is supposed to put files into: >>WSMDB-CS/Drivers/Sentinel and below depending on the depth of the module >>but it comes out into WSMDB-CS/ instead... >> >>My problem is still here with the 2.0.8 I grabbed today so I am wondering >>which will be the "next" release when the export -N functionlaity is restored? >>The only old version I have available is b72 and this works correctly. >> >Works perfectly here: > >D:\t>cvs -d d:/repo export -r HEAD -d foo develop/include >cvs export: Updating foo >U foo/16BitHeaders.h >U foo/AFXIMPL.H >U foo/DbgHelp.h > >D:\t>cvs -d d:/repo export -r HEAD -d foo -N develop/include >cvs export: Updating foo/develop/include >U foo/develop/include/16BitHeaders.h >U foo/develop/include/AFXIMPL.H >U foo/develop/include/DbgHelp.h > >It's worked for quite a while, actually (since a day or two after you first >reported it). > >Tony > >_______________________________________________ >cvsnt mailing list >cvsnt at cvsnt.org cvsnt downloads at march-hare.com @CVSNT on Twitter CVSNT on Facebook >http://www.cvsnt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cvsnt https://www.march-hare.com/cvspro/en.asp#downcvs >_______________________________________________ >cvsnt mailing list >cvsnt at cvsnt.org cvsnt downloads at march-hare.com @CVSNT on Twitter CVSNT on Facebook >http://www.cvsnt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cvsnt https://www.march-hare.com/cvspro/en.asp#downcvs /Bo (Bo Berglund, developer in Sweden)
