Last time I checked, which was admittedly some years ago now, wincvs was just a gui wrapper that shelled out to a commandline cvs client to do the actual work for it. So isn't the real problem that you're using the wrong cvs client software with wincvs, i.e. you're using a cvsnt client instead of the cygwin cvs client? cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today.... -- 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/
