Обсуждение: CVS moved
Hi all, The cvs has now been moved. The new root is: :pserver:user@cvs.pgadmin.org/projects The IP address has also changed but will take a liitle while to work it's way around the DNS - it is now 80.176.1.156. I have left the old repository in place for now but made it read only, primarily to prevent any scripts fouling up. I would suggest that a fresh checkout is the easiest way to update to the new root. Regards, Dave.

Dear Dave and all, I was able to make a fresh checkout, but then I could not update my local CVS tree using the "cvs update -C -P -d" command. The error message is: /disk1/cvsroot: no such repository Looking at my local copy, the CVS folder contains the following entry: :pserver:jmpoure@cvs.pgadmin.org:/disk1/cvsroot It seems that the new server does not have a /disk1 entry. This is a typical problem with CVS, folders and files cannot be renamed. Why not take the opportunity of this migration to use a sophiticated system like subversion. There are very good subversion Win32 clients around like http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org Cheers, Jean-Michel

No, that's why you need to do a fresh checkout from the new repo. > Why not take the opportunity of this migration to use a sophiticated > system like subversion.
