I have the sandbox on my own XP workstation and I have a CVSNT server also on this machine. It is the one I check new stuff on normally so it has the bleeding edge CVSNT (currently 2244). So that is the cvs client being used. From WinCvs command window: cvs ver ***** CVS exited normally with code 0 ***** Client: Concurrent Versions System (CVSNT) 2.5.03 (Scorpio) Build 2244 (client/server) Server: Concurrent Versions System (CVSNT) 2.5.03 (Scorpio) Build 2244 (client/server) >Multilingual stuff wasn't really validated as working until build 2151, >and wasn't even written until 2.0.60 or thereabouts (might have to >specify -o on some of the really old builds). > >On older clients non-ascii filenames will only work if you force your >server to exactly the same codepage as the client...
