OK, it's been 14 hours of pain in the ass and I'm STILL not getting stuff
to work
I have NO idea what the heck has gone wrong with CVSNT (2.0.41) but this is
REAL tiresome.
I _finally_ manage to get cvswrappers setup with the -m 'COPY' and I'd
like to kill the idiot that thinks that sqotes are required around COPY, so
now I can actually import stuff correctly on the server to the
repository. but NOW I get some stupid warning about -m not supported
remotely; ignored when I use remote machines.
oh, and I had to empty my cvsroot and re-init, then put cvsignore and
cvswrappers back in before I could get it to quit bitching about "can't get
lock on modules,v"....and I STILL get it if I'm not going directly to the
repository /repository instead of :pserver:............../repository
I think all the enhancements going it are great, but how about getting back
to basics and fixing stuff so we can possibly import a project that has
both text and binary files!!!
yes, I'm angry, it's 4 f**king AM and I've trying to fix this damned thing
since 2PM
I've been using RCS since 1985 and this is working a LOT less well for
simple shit.
I'm very happy that we can handle UNICODE, but FIX THE DARNED BINARY FILE
PROBLEM !!!!!!!!!!
some more things.... how am I supposed to run repositories on different
"drives" on 'doze without the person accessing it needing to know about my
drive letters?
why won't setting the prefix allow one to have / as the repository?... i.e.
why does the user have to know the directory name?
any chance we'll ever get aliases for the repositories?
I apologize for the language because I'm tire...but I'm also VERY
frustrated. this junk USED to work (when the hell did we start
needing -m to handle binary files anyway? where the hell did -state
go? these don't all look like improvements to me.
