How to add a new directory to a sourceforge repository

[davidjones]

Hi All,

I suspect I am being stupid, but I would really apperitiate a bit of
help.  I am trying to add a new directory to my sourceforge repository
but it is not working.  Here is what I do:

Get a copy of the current working copy, into an empty directory:

-bash-3.00$ /usr/local/bin/cvs -z3 -
d:ext:address@hidden:/cvsroot/europhenome
checkout generationLib
address@hidden's password:
cvs checkout: Updating generationLib
U generationLib/LICENCE
U generationLib/README
cvs checkout: Updating generationLib/org
cvs checkout: Updating generationLib/org/europhenome
U generationLib/org/europhenome/AgeReturn.java
...
(seems to work)

Add the directory to my working copy:

-bash-3.00$ mkdir generationLib/org/europhenome/webserviceinteractor
(seems to work)

Add this directory to repository:

-bash-3.00$ /usr/local/bin/cvs -z3 -
d:ext:address@hidden:/cvsroot/europhenome add
generationLib/org/europhenome/webserviceinteractor
address@hidden's password:
cvs add: in directory .:
cvs [add aborted]: there is no version here; do 'cvs checkout' first

I then tried adding a file in that directory, same problem:

-bash-3.00$ /usr/local/bin/cvs -z3 -
d:ext:address@hidden:/cvsroot/europhenome add
generationLib/org/europhenome/webserviceinteractor/
EmpressDatabase.java
address@hidden's password:
cvs add: in directory .:
cvs [add aborted]: there is no version here; do 'cvs checkout' first

I apperitiate any help.
