The easiest are: 1) Use a front end that will figure it out for you, like TortoiseCVS (http://www.tortoisecvs.org/) or WinCVS (http://www.wincvs.org/). 2) Use the cvswrappers file. Check out your CVSROOT and you'll fund a file called "cvswrappers". I've attached a fairly comprehensive cvswrappers file that you can use--BUT know that the downside is that cvs will assume that all files with matching extensions are binary. ** Note: I don't recall if this list allows attachments or not--I suspect it doesn't. Just email me directly if you need this. Read more about the cvswrappers and how to work with that in the online docs. > >2. once i do 1.), can i re-import the necessary modules (directories and >sub-directories) over the previous ones without getting a ton of conflicts OR >3. can i simply delete the affected modules and re-import new modules once >1.) is done? Either should work. I used the delete option when that happened to me because I don't like having known broken binaries in my repository.
