But cvs certainly knows "what it is" if it's a subdirectory subject to creation and pruning; that means the subdirectory exists in the repository. I doubt that cvs would complain about a pre-existing subdirectory of this type either, because that would result in an unreasonable amount of chatter when adding or removing the -P option. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 9: In versions below 8.0, the planner will ignore your desire to choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not match
