Well shucks! How do make other machines' directory structure match the original machine? For example, in the beginning (when importing . used to work) I did this: C: cd \ mkdir business cd business cvs import -Cdn business root vi stuff cvs add stuff Then on the original machine, the path was business/stuff but on the other machines, it was business/business/stuff. I did not like the extra layer of directories! So I learned some time ago (it has been a while) to do C: cd \ mkdir business cd business cvs import -Cd . root trunk And that fixed the problem! On all machines it would be the same path! Can I still do that? I hope so! How do I do it? I just upgraded and it still hangs. The mystery is: why did it used to work and suddenly stop working when I did not perform any upgrade? Thanks!
