[cvsnt] Re: I have lost all older revisions

[Glen Starrett]

That statement works fine for me, and my files all have the history info in
them--the RCS format isn't particularly easy to read, are you certain you do
NOT have the history information in there?

Do you have any commit scripts running that might be purposefully
manipulating the level of history?

Regards,

Glen Starrett

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.
