[cvsnt] Re: I have lost all older revisions

As shown in WinCVS console, the command is 


cvs update -p -r 1.3 README.TXT (in directory
C:\CVS_Views\Marconi\Docs\Configuracao\)


This command is triggered by WinCVS when I print the history as a
graph, select the desired revision, right-click and choose the
"retrieve revision" option.

Also, I noticed that the problem is not at the command used. I opened
the physical file README.TXT,v that resides into the server, and, for
every new commit, the previous information is not stored in this file.

Btw, I upgraded to build 75 and the problem is gone.

But the question still remains: What was causing this?

Post the command you are using to "retrieve" the older revision.
