You can amend this by modifying $CVSROOT/CVSROOT/cvswrappers and committing it back to the repository. For example, I have configured a local CVS repository with: ## Image files *.gif -k 'b' *.jpg -k 'b' *.png -k 'b' *.xcf -k 'b' ## Archive files *.gz -k 'b' *.bz2 -k 'b' *.tar -k 'b' *.zip -k 'b' *.arj -k 'b' *.bin -k 'b' *.hqx -k 'b' ## Other binary files *.exe -k 'b' *.doc -k 'b' *.xls -k 'b' *.pdf -k 'b' This wouldn't fix any files that had already been corrupted, though. Such files would need to be uploaded to the repository again (with -kb). I'm not sure why the Debian CVS packages don't ship with any of this stuff configured, by default or as a debconf option: something to take up with tfheen@ at some time I suppose. =) Andrew. -- Andrew Shugg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.neep.com.au/ "Just remember, Mr Fawlty, there's always someone worse off than yourself."
