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

[Siegfried Heintze]

I'm sure I'm using the recent cvsnt client. I tried it again, this time
(using cmd.exe instead of bash) I'm trying to save my changes in the
repository. What does this error mean: "Up-to-date check failed"?

This is in reponse to creating a new sandbox, modifying a file with the
editor and commiting it. That is an appropriate sequence, is it not?
  Thanks,\
           Siegfried

It looks like you're using the CYGWin version of CVS for the client 
(check with cvs -version).  You shouldn't use both the unix and win32 
cvs clients against the same sandbox.  What happens when you try this 
with the CVSNT client under a normal Win32 command prompt?
