All versions of CVS behave identically in this respect. You've told it not to ignore anything, so it doesn't. CVS has a default list of files that it'll ignore, and the CVS directory is one of those. Normally you wouldn't use ! to reset all the ignore files unless you were going to add some or all of these to the list. ! on its own is pretty drastic and has the effect you noticed. It's just saying "this directory exists and you've told me not to ignore it" - it's nothing to do with added directories or anything. Tony
