Bo, I have the following line in my CVSROOT/cvswrappers file to deal with pdf files. It supplies the default rcs option on import or add for files with the extension *.pdf *.pdf -k 'b' It appears you can also have a .cvswrappers file just like a .cvsignore if you want to. The wrapper.c file in the source code begins with the following explaination and example. <snip> /* Original Author: athan at morgan.com <Andrew C. Athan> 2/1/94 Modified By: vdemarco at bou.shl.com This package was written to support the NEXTSTEP concept of "wrappers." These are essentially directories that are to be treated as "files." This package allows such wrappers to be "processed" on the way in and out of CVS. The intended use is to wrap up a wrapper into a single tar, such that that tar can be treated as a single binary file in CVS. To solve the problem effectively, it was also necessary to be able to prevent rcsmerge application at appropriate times. ------------------ Format of wrapper file ($CVSROOT/CVSROOT/cvswrappers or .cvswrappers) wildcard [option value][option value]... where option is one of -f from cvs filter value: path to filter -t to cvs filter value: path to filter -m update methodology value: MERGE or COPY -k default -k rcs option to use on import or add and value is a single-quote delimited value. E.g: *.nib -f 'gunzipuntar' -t 'targzip' -m 'COPY' */ </snip> cheers Mikew
