I updated my installation of Cygwin yesterday. As part of this CVS was updated to version 1.11.5-1
I had been using cvs quite successfully to talk to a repository on a Windows 2000 server. As of this upgrade this is no longer working. When I cd to my copy and type 'cvs update' I get an error;
cvs update: CVSROOT requires a path spec:
cvs update: :(gserver|kserver|pserver):[[user][:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:[port]]/path
cvs update: [:(ext|server):[EMAIL PROTECTED]:]/path
cvs [update aborted]: Bad CVSROOT: `:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:c:\eglrepository'.
I've tried doing a fresh checkout (to another directory) with all sorts of variations on the path spec but none seems to work, for instance;
$ cvs -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/c:\\eglrepository login
or
$ cvs -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/c//eglrepository login
etc.
Can anyone provide any suggestions? Please cc me as I'm not subscribed to the list.
