Re: CVS command hangs with commit

In the future, please send such general help requests to address@hidden rather 
than directly to me.  You
are much more likely to receive a timely and accurate response.

In any case, like I said, I've never heard of this problem before, but if it 
only happens with large files it
might be lack of swap space.  If it's a flaky network you should be seeing 
major symptoms somewhere besides
in CVS.

You might try searching the mail archives for more on this problem.  There's 
one at mail-archive.com and one
at groups.yahoo.com.
