Since you are writing advanced cvs command scripts it was assumed you knew about the meaning of "sandbox".... The "sandbox" is s short word for a working file set checked out of CVS. In each of the file set folders there is a hidden CVS subfolder containing vital administrative files for the management of the file set. Any cvs command issued within a sandbox folder will see by the existence of the CVS subfolder that this is a sandbox and go there to pick up all the needed extra data like which server to connect to using which protocol etc. HTH Bo > Also, you're not sending the file information - annotate uses the > sandbox and needs the entry lines for the current directory. > > If all you want to do is annotate a specific file in the repository > just use the remote annotate (rannotate): > OK, I have absolutely no idea what a sandbox is. I do have these files stored in a separate working directory somewhere. I edit them in that directgory and use commit commands (TortoiseCVS) to update the main repository. That all works fine. So is this working directory the sandbox?
