This should be a no-brainer, but I just can't get my CVS setup going.
I'm on Win2k, with Cygwin 1.3.2, CVS 1.11 (the cvs built into Cygwin).
I have a directory "$HOME/java/sgs" that I want to store into CVS.
I'm setting my CVSROOT to ":local:/cygdrive/c/cvsroot".
I want to check out "sgs" into "$HOME/java/cvswork/sgs".
Ok, so in the "sgs" directory, I did this:
cvs import -m "Simple Grading System" sgs intsoft start
This appeared to work, creating lots of "N" and "cvs import: Importing ..."
lines. It did, however, skip importing one source file, because it was in a
DIRECTORY named "tags". I know why that happened. I'll get that file added
once I get everything else working.
Anyway, now in "/cygdrive/c/cvsroot", there is a "sgs" directory that contains
all of my RCS files.
So, now I go to "$HOME/java/cvswork" and try to figure out how to check it
out. I'll show a little bit of shell history here, indicating what I tried.
----------------
% pwd
/home/dmkarr/java/cvswork
% cvs checkout sgs
cvs [checkout aborted]: must specify at least one module or directory
% mkdir sgs
% cvs checkout sgs
cvs [checkout aborted]: must specify at least one module or directory
% cd sgs
% cvs checkout sgs
cvs [checkout aborted]: must specify at least one module or directory
----------------
So what am I doing wrong?
