In Cygwin's supplied cvs package: $ cvs --version
Concurrent Versions System (CVS) 1.11.23 (client/server) Copyright (C) 2006 Free Software Foundation, Inc. [..] This seems to be an older version of cvs, and SourceForge's cvs server won't always interoperate with it to do e.g. the cvs remove command. Choices to install are 1.11.23-2 and the older 1.11.22-1. Later versions of cvs don't have this problem. Oddly, the later versions of cvs I have access to on other systems have a later version number but an earlier copyright year... 2005 vs 2006.

(mac os x snow leopard) $ cvs --version Concurrent Versions System (CVS) 1.12.13 (client/server) Copyright (C) 2005 Free Software Foundation, Inc. Can the cvs package in cygwin be updated? 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
