Hi,

I've just upgraded to 2.0.51.

When committing a newly added file, I now get a stat error

D:\omz13>cvs commit -m "" CVSROOT
cvs commit: Examining CVSROOT
RCS file: /omz13/CVSROOT/cvsignore,v
done
Checking in CVSROOT/cvsignore;
/omz13/CVSROOT/cvsignore,v  <--  cvsignore
initial revision: 1.1
done
Checking in CVSROOT/cvswrappers;
/omz13/CVSROOT/cvswrappers,v  <--  cvswrappers
new revision: 1.2; previous revision: 1.1
done
cvs server: Rebuilding administrative file database
cvs server: Cannot stat cvsignore
cvs server: Cannot stat cvsignore

Also, when releasing a directory, I'm told my files are altered, even though
status says they're up-to-date.

D:\omz13>cvs status -q
cvs server: Examining CVSROOT
File: checkoutlist      Status: Up-to-date
File: commitinfo        Status: Up-to-date

File: taginfo           Status: Up-to-date
File: verifymsg         Status: Up-to-date

D:\omz13>cvs release -d CVSROOT
You have [16] altered files in this repository.
Are you sure you want to release (and delete) directory `CVSROOT': y

Any ideas?

Cheers,

David
