I should have specified which version of the client I was using - 1.11.5. I
never noticed the problem you mentioned.
BTW, will this effort fix this problem:
D:\files\cvs\cvs-test>cvs-1.11.5 st jhyslop/mixedcase
===================================================================
File: no file mixedcase Status: Needs Checkout
Working revision: No entry for mixedcase
Repository revision: 1.2 /cvs/cvs-test/jhyslop/MiXeDcAsE,v
D:\files\cvs\cvs-test>cvs-1.11.5 st jhyslop/MiXeDcAsE
===================================================================
File: MiXeDcAsE Status: Up-to-date
Working revision: 1.2
Repository revision: 1.2 /cvs/cvs-test/jhyslop/MiXeDcAsE,v
Sticky Tag: (none)
Sticky Date: (none)
Sticky Options: (none)
i.e. if I am working in a different directory, I must be case-correct when
specifying filenames. The interesting thing to note is that in the first
command, the client (1.11.5 again, BTW) finds the correct line in the
Entries file - note that in both cases, it correctly reports the repository
version as 1.2. The fix seems fairly easy - when sending the 'Argument
jhyslop/mixedcase' convert it to the correct case, extracted from the
Entries file (mind you, I haven't looked at the code to see if it is as easy
as it appears to be :-).
