Hi
There is an issue I am facing that I am unable to solve; I hope I am
posting on the proper mailing list. Here are the steps I am following:
1) On a server machine, I set up a new cvs repository
2) On a client machine, user_a imports a new folder "test" into that
repository, that contains nothing
3) user_a checks out the module "test" into a local folder
4) user_b checks out the module "test" into another folder
5) user_b creates a new file "test.txt", adds it, and commits it
6) user_a does a cvs update, and "test.txt" is properly downloaded
7) user_a does the symmetric operation with another new file
"test2.txt", and user_b also sees it appear when it does a cvs update
So far, so good; things seem to work the way they should. Now here is
what is happening:
8) user_a creates a new FOLDER "subtest", containing a file
"subtest.txt"; it adds the folder and its file, and commits the changes
9) when user_b does a cvs update, it does not get any notification
about the existence of "subfolder", and no file gets downloaded.
10) user_b does the symmetric maneuver, creating a new folder
"subfolder2", adding it, committing it, but then when user_a does a
cvs update, it does not get notified about the existence of this new
folder.
Am I doing something wrong? I have used CVS before, and I don't
remember ever been faced with this problem...
Thanks in advance
Thomas
