Sorry about not responding earlier, I'm afraid I rarely lurk here
lately.
I'm assuming your using a binary DJGPP distribution of CVS.
Could you send me
- The version of cvs you're using
If it's 1.10, try getting the binary distrib again; during the 2.03
update frenzy, my updated distrib was clobbered by a broken version,
and you may have such a broken version.
If it's not 1.10 (i.e. 1.9 or earlier), try upgrading to 1.10.
- The exact output 'cvs init' gives
- The contents of your environment (maybe you have LFN=n?)
- The contents of the directory you're using as CVSROOT.
- Anything else you think is relevant.
If nothing else works, I can send you an executable for cvs 1.11; this
no
longer supports DOS-style paths as CVSROOT though, so you'd have to use
/dev/c/work instead of c:/work.
