I am attempting to tag previous revisions of specific files but my
command is failing. I obviously am not getting the command right. I am
attempting this to a CVS server on Linux (1.11.17), pserver access,
using the WinCVS 1.2 client command line interface.
Suppose I have a file in the repository:
/base/submodule/code.c
This file's HEAD is currently at revision 1.18. I want to apply the tag
SHIPPED_2.0 to revision 1.15. I am attempting the command:
cvs -n -t rtag -f -r 1.15 SHIPPED_2.0 /base/submodule/code.c
But I get back:
cvs rtag: notice: main loop with
CVSROOT=:pserver:address@hidden:/usr/local/repository
cvs server: WARNING: global `-l' option ignored.
S-> my_module (/base/submodule/code.c, Tagging, , SHIPPED_2.0)
cvs [rtag aborted]: Absolute module reference invalid:
`/base/submodule/code.c'
S-> Lock_Cleanup()
I am aware that the -n and -t global flags (between cvs and rtag)
prevent the actual operation and provide a trace of the command. The
rtag command is new to me so I thought it would be good to test first. :^)
However, the syntax on the rest of it must be wrong. Any helpful clues
from the gallery?
