I'm having trouble with pulling from cvs under 64-bit cygwin. I have parallel 32-bit and 64-bit cygwin installs on a Win7 Enterprise machine.
Under 32-bit cygwin, I do this all the time: cvs -z3 -d:ext:lloydw...@savi.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/savi co savi-dev and quite happily; type password at prompt, pull files and go. Under 64-bit cygwin, this doesn't work; I never get a password prompt. I see that the cvs versions are different: Under 64-bit cygwin: $ which cvs /usr/bin/cvs $ cvs -version Concurrent Versions System (CVS) 1.11.23 (client/server) Copyright (C) 2006 Free Software Foundation, Inc. Under 32-bit cygwin $ which cvs /usr/bin/cvs $ cvs -version Concurrent Versions System (CVS) 1.12.13 (client/server) Copyright (C) 2005 Free Software Foundation, Inc. So, different versions, the cvs version under 64-bit Cygwin appears earlier than the version under 32-bit Cygwin (but I no longer understand FSF version numbering; don't ask me about gcc 5...) but this earlier(?) version has a later year. And, unlike 32-bit, doesn't seem to work. Something here is very very odd, and I'd appreciate enlightenment. thanks Lloyd Wood http://savi.sf.net -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
