RE: cvs rlog -rTAG1::TAG2 doesn't handle newly added files

[Matthew Herrmann]

Hi All,

I upgraded to 1.11.9 but this didn't solve the problem.

Maybe the fix in 1.11.9 for this problem was only for the precise case where
the file was created after, but wasn't modified?

In any case, to reproduce, copy the following into a working directory. 3
revisions should be displayed by the log command at the end, but none are :

echo 1 > test.txt
cvs add test.txt
cvs commit -m "test.txt"
echo 2 > test.txt
cvs commit -m "test.txt"
echo 3 > test.txt
cvs commit -m "test.txt"
cvs tag TEMP test.txt
cvs log -rBEFORE::AFTER test.txt


Output:
cvs log: warning: no revision `PRIOR_TAG' in `...,v'

RCS file: /.../test.txt,v
Working file: test.txt
head: 1.3
branch:
locks: strict
access list:
symbolic names:
        TEMP: 1.3
keyword substitution: kv
total revisions: 3;     selected revisions: 0

Update your server to the most recent release (1.11.9).
