Heya,
On the Tortoise Mailing list

According to cvs --help-options:
-x Encrypt all net traffic (fail if not encrypted).
-y Encrypt all net traffic (if supported by protocol).
It looks like it's doing what you asked: -x fails the command if it
can't be encrypted. If you use -y instead, it should fail gracefully.
At least that's what it looks like it should do--SSPI supports
encryption but doesn't in the case of Linux, I would imagine if -y
should fail gracefully still.

And I wrote back
I just tried this in a sandbox checked out using :sspi: and -y appears
to fail in the same manner (See Below). Also -y is not documented in
the Reference Manual. http://www.cvsnt.org/manual/Global-options.html
.... Back to the cvsnt mailng list .
cvs update BranchPerFeature.txt (in directory D:\HowItCouldBeDone\sand)
***** CVS exited normally with code 0 *****
cvs -x update BranchPerFeature.txt
***** CVS exited normally with code 1 *****
cvs [update aborted]: end of file from server (consult above messages if
any)
cvs -y update BranchPerFeature.txt
***** CVS exited normally with code 1 *****
cvs [update aborted]: end of file from server (consult above messages if
any)
