Renaming directories is nasty in CVS no matter which way you look at it - it is one of the known bad limitations. You might preserve the history but you could also break every existing repo copy. See http://ximbiot.com/cvs/manual/cvs-1.11.15/cvs_7.html#SEC74 Unless there is a *very* good reason this should be avoided. cheers andrew ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
