Hi everyone I am very sorry for mentioning "release option of import command" instead of "release option of commit command". Please take a note that actually the command is cvs commit -r 3.0 Sorry about that > No, it will always be 1.1 when you add a new file. But Mr. Berglund, it has been mentioned in the documentation that the version of the new file added will be the highest of version of all files. And Since I am not able to bump up the revision of file, I am unable to verify the above statement. Anyway I will try to avoid these revision numbers. regards Abhishek --- Bo Berglund <bo.berglund at telia.com> wrote: > On Wed, 1 Sep 2004 20:41:56 -0700 (PDT), abhishek jaiswal > <abhi658606 at yahoo.com> wrote: > > >While reading the documentation, I found that the version no. of > file > >given by cvs can be 1.4, 2.5, 1.45 , 5.1 etc. Hence when you add a > >new file its version no. will be 5.1 > > No, it will always be 1.1 when you add a new file. > > > > >But when I made a project and started working on it.
