Hello,
I tried a "cvs co -r mytag myproj" and receive the following:
cvs [checkout aborted]: cannot open directory .../CVS/mypoj/Attic: Not a
directory
It is true -- since i have deleted nothing in myproj yet, i don't have Attic
in it. But why is it impossible to checkout a tag or revision if module
doesn't contain Attics?
After i manually mkdir _empty_ Attic in .../CVS/mypoj cvs was satisfied
and checked out mytag.
Is this a BUG? If yes, then is there a workaround?
My configuration:
cygwin1.dll: 1.3.6-6
CVSROOT: :local:/cygdrive/c/usr/local/CVS
Thank you,
Alexei Lioubimov
