[cvsnt] Re: How do I add a single file?

[Siegfried Heintze]

Glen,
I don't understand why I don't need the -d option! How is it going to know
which repository I want? I suppose I could define CVSROOT but is that not
the same thing as using -d?  OK, well I tried defining CVSROOT and that did
not help.
  Incidently, I'm now running v2.0.46.
  Thanks again,
     Siegfried

You don't need the -d param with CVS Add.  Try this instead:

C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\cgi-bin>cvs add -m "temp file: 
delete this" EditCaseWorkSiegShafi.pl
