[cvsnt] Can't export using branch tag or date?

[Richard Harding]

Hi all,

I've having a problem with exports when I try either:

In E:\temp: cvs -q export -D "25 Mar 2003" UniformTools

or

In E:\temp: cvs -q export -r BRANCH_72A UniformTools

I get the following error:

cvs [export aborted]: cannot write <CVS/Template file>: No such file or
directory

(as I'm doing an export the CVS folders don't exist)


I should add that I'm doing this via the TortoiseCVS shell extension on a
windows 2000 box

TortoiseCVS about reports:

Unstable version 1.3.6
cvs 1.11.1.3 build 76

(I also attempted this with the latest stable TortoiseCVS which I think used
build 57j of cvs ?)

To complete the picture this is running against a cvs server on a mandrake
linux server - the version of cvs on the server is 1.11

Can anyone confirm that this an issue with the server version of cvs (if so
which version has fix ?) or the client ?

Thanks for any advice/help

Cheers
