Checkout inconsistencies -- known bug? |

Scenario:
Directory hierarchy (InstallShield project) checked into CVS
filled with a few files, but mostly empty directories. The
directory hierarchy is required by InstallShield, not me.
Problem:
On the trunk everything checks out complete w/ various empty dirs,
and all is fine. On a branch however, the module checks out up to
the point where the last file (i.e. non-directory) entry exists
leaving multiple empty, but required, directories unchecked out.
Solution:
Performing a CVS update -d will fill in the rest of the directories,
as will a mkdir (duh), but neither should be necessary IMO.
Question:
The repository was created w/ CVS 1.10, but regardless of client,
client version, or platform the behavior is the same. Is this
a [known] bug, or an unusual feature? :-)
TIA,
Doug
