No, I only use cvs manually. Also, since I only use it for "personal" projects on my own machine -- not shared projects -- I don't use 'reserved checkouts' (e.g. cvs watch, cvs edit, cvs unedit, etc). > Another guy here at work gets the same results.

Seems to work fine here. mkdir foo cd foo touch build.txt cvs import -m "test module" foo foo_1 foo_1_00 cd .. cvs watch on rm -rf foo cvs checkout foo cd foo ---- Okay, so module foo has one empty file called "build.txt". Now, create the following script (use /bin/sh -x so we can trace execution) --- 'test' ---- #!/bin/sh -x cvs edit build.txt echo "test" $1 > build.txt cvs commit -m "test" build.txt cvs unedit build.txt --- 'test' ---- chmod +x test ./test 1 ---output is---- + cvs edit build.txt + echo test 1 + cvs commit -m test build.txt Checking in build.txt; /e/Users/cwilson/.cvsroot/foo/build.txt,v <-- build.txt new revision: 1.3; previous revision: 1.2 done + cvs unedit build.txt ----end---- Notes: running under WinNT, repository and checkout dir are both on NTFS drives. Looks like your problem is somehow related to your setup. :-( --Chuck -- Want to unsubscribe from this list?
