- It could be that I'm just flat out confused here... So bear with me.
-
- I've installed cvs-1.3 on an HP 9000/730 (8.05), and a Decstation 5000/240
- (Ultrix 4.3).
-
- I took and converted my GNU source tree to CVS.
-
- I tagged (rtag actually) the initial release of the source as 'BASELINE'
- (missed the part about BASE apparently).
-
- Then I went and tagged the source with a few tags, ala' (Using diff-1.15
- as an example)
-
- cvs rtag -b TAG1 diff-1.15
- cvs rtag -b TAG2 diff-1.15
-
- Where TAG1 and TAG2 are 2 architecture dependent flags.
-
- On the decstation, I can do a cvs checkout -r TAG1 diff-1.15
- and it creates the dir, just like it's supposed to, and lets me edit/update
- , commit, etc. just like it should.
-
- So now I bop over to the HP, and I want to build diff-1.15 for it:
-
- erchp2:/P#/Gnu-dev/src % cvs checkout -r $CVSTAG diff-1.15
- cvs checkout: Updating diff-1.15
- erchp2:/P#/Gnu-dev/src % ls
- diff-1.15/
- erchp2:/P#/Gnu-dev/src % ls -R
- diff-1.15/
-
- ./diff-1.15:
- CVS/
-
- ./diff-1.15/CVS:
- Entries Repository Tag
-
-
- And no files... Argh. I jump back over to the decstation, and do the
- same command, and it works.
-
-
- Any speculation? byte-order problems? Bizarro weirdness in the HPUX
- supplied versions of ci/co?
