The new cvs opens ~/.cvsrc using the default mount mode of the disk, rather than explicitly opening it in text mode. I think the new behavior is more logical even if the old version's laxness allowed a little sloppiness in some users' setups. Thanks for posting the results of your investigation. The only concern I (would) have is if other versions (msys? old cygwin? native win32 ports? etc) can use the same ~/.cvsrc even if it has only unix line endings. However, I've been doing that, with all those variants, for years -- so, no problem. -- Chuck -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
