What I did was this: - Initialized a new repository using 2.0.62.1873 - In CVSROOT I found modules2,v - I copied this file to the test repository CVSROOT folder - Then I did an update on the CVSROOT sandbox and modules2 appeared - Next I edited in the module definition and committed - Now CVSNT rebuilt the admin files and also produced a modules2 file So in this respect I know it can be done, probably possible to create a modules2 file and cvs add it too, but that will not have the syntax comments inside of course. Anyway I am now suspecting that we have a case of handling error here since my modules2 definition contains a reference to a physical module with a name containing an & char. I used this before to check how taginfo handles it after I once found that folder names with & broke taginfo. This is solved but maybe not modules2 handling. Next when I get home I will try what happens if I remove that line. If that cures the problem then I will also check with folder names containing other "strange" chars like " " and - and possibly also ! and , A good test would be a folder named "!-&kalle kula-," this is a legal name in Windows but I suspect (without actually testing) that it wil be a hard one to crack for CVS... /Bo -----Original Message----- From: cvsnt-bounces at cvsnt.org [mailto:cvsnt-bounces at cvsnt.org]On Behalf Of Glen Starrett Sent: den 8 februari 2005 09:00 To: cvsnt at cvsnt.org cvsnt downloads at march-hare.com @CVSNT on Twitter CVSNT on Facebook Subject: [cvsnt] Re: How to access modules2 in a repository that is upgraded?

I did not think I could just add it... I would think you can also init a new repository and grab the default copy (and any comments) as your new modules2 file. I know I like to keep the comments in the admin files up to date since I'm in there so seldom. -- Glen Starrett _______________________________________________ cvsnt mailing list cvsnt at cvsnt.org cvsnt downloads at march-hare.com @CVSNT on Twitter CVSNT on Facebook http://www.cvsnt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cvsnt https://www.march-hare.com/cvspro/en.asp#downcvs
