Note: Please reply to the list, not directly to me (list etiquette). How did you import them? I am guessing that they didn't get imported with the -kb option that tells CVS these are binary files. The difference is only seen on Windows clients. Normally, when a text file is checked out it has it's CR translated to CRLF automatically. However, you don't want that with binary files (nor do you want keyword expansion), and the -kb takes care of that for you. TortoiseCVS and WinCVS make an attempt (a pretty good one, too) to determine the type of file and automatically set that flag for you. I'm guessing you used the command line directly--in that case you should set up your CVSWRAPPERS file with the appropriate extension-to-filetype mappings. Personally, I'd recommend using TortoiseCVS or WinCVS (my preference is the former but both are nice clients). I did also set up my cvswrappers file, since I also like the command line for scripting & concise "how to" cliffnotes for myself. Look up cvswrappers in the documentation, it's a file that lives in the CVSROOT administration files area of your repository.

I guess in the short term I'll be putting image files in cvsignore, but since I am using cvs to keep track of web sites, it would be nice to keep the images in cvs as well. Has anyone else encountered this problem?

Are you using absolute paths or relative? Are you including the images in the repository? Glen Starrett
