[cvsnt] cvs update is not updating

[Siegfried Heintze]

Bo,
I'm not sure what you mean. Of course the files are in the (server resident)
sandbox where I created them with emacs.  The files show up if I do a cvs
log in the server sandbox. I tried cvs ls -R but that does not work on this
server. Do you mean to create another sandbox on the server and check to see
if my files are there?

I did a cvs update this morning on my workstation and noticed there was a
case conflict between StudioForm.page and studioForm.page. That was good
news because those were files (in an existing directory) that I created last
night. Then I went back to the server and did a cvs remove and then back to
the workstation with another cvs update. The new files are there! 

The files that are missing seem to be in directories that are nested 4
levels deep that I have created with the cvs add command. I tried adding
them again in the server sand box and it complained the directory was
already there. I did a cvs commit again. I went down to the actual files and
did cvs log. Yup! My revisions were there on the server. But cvs update is
missing them on my workstation.

I'm still suspicious of those directories I created since other files are
now showing up. I went up and down the directory tree trying to add and
commit those directories that I created and they are already added and
already committed. What else can I check?

Thanks,
Siegfried

If you go to the *server* and look in the repository there, do you see
the directories you want in the wanted places?
If not then this is the problem you are having. The new directories wound
up in a different location on the server than what you thought.
