I see the same thing when trying to update a tree to this branch using local cvs on mcvsup.postgresql.org. The file is owned by scrappy and has no group write permissions. I use CVSup, and looking at the permissions on my local CVS repository (which does allow me to work with the branch) that file is group (and world!?) writable: 29501576 -rw-rw-rw- 1 thomas thomas 33 Jun 23 07:37 val-tags And looking at another CVS repository with "known good" behavior I see that the file is group-writable. scrappy, can you adjust the permissions on /cvsroot/CVSROOT to allow group writes, and adjust the permissions on /cvsroot/CVSROOT/val-tags to allow group writes? Perhaps it is just the permissions on the directory which are the problem, but it seems that no branch operations are currently allowed :( - Thomas ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
