[cvsnt] update -p option over binary files

[Bo Berglund]

The pop-up menu item in WinCvs Graph view is *really* misleading and this
has been pointed out several times already.
The "Retrieve revision" item should *only* be visible if the graphed file
is a text file, because only then does it work at all.
This of course is a WinCvs issue....

Hi.

I am using cvsnt 2.0.0 on the server and on the client. And WinCVS
1.3.12.1.

Recently i have tried to retrieve and old revision of a binary file
and tried with the next command: update -p -r TAG binary.file (The command
was launch through WinCVS, with the graph and "Retrieve revision"). But
the output file (binary.file#TAG) doesn't was the real file, its size
wasn't correct. So i tried a checkout command and then the file was 
correct.

Is It caused because the binary files are not mergeables???

I think this option would be useful.

Thanks.

Nacho.
