[cvsnt] Re: CVSNT Diff fails

[David Smith]

The problem is that This does cause a problem. It causes update to say the 
file needs updated. I have about 100 files in this directory. They are all 
checked in at the same time. The repository was created using CVS (not 
CVSNT). So, I need the workspace files to be consistent with the repository 
files. Looking at the files on both sides (repository and workspace) there 
are no markers. It is being inserted by the server. I have to get rid of 
this. How can? We have a whole suite of products that we are recommending 
customers migrate from CVS to CVSNT and are doing are final testing and this 
has broken our ability to use CVSNT.

Recommendations?

David
