Thanks for the response, Suvayu. I'm running the latest Emacs (23.3) on Fedora 13. After performing a "vc-register", the file is marked read-only, so there is no "check-in" after that unless I check it out first. In some cases, I'm using RCS (which came with Fedora 13) as well as CVS. In almost all cases, software I've installed were via yum, so it should have come from the Fedora site. I have Fedora 15 installed at work, and I see the same behavior with the Emacs that came with it. I was going to submit a bug to Emacs, but I thought I would check to see if there's an emacs variable that I didn't see or something. Thanks again, Chris suvayu ali wrote: On Mon, Oct 10, 2011 at 11:49 PM, <cwcarlson@cox.net> wrote:In a previous version of Emacs, I'm not sure how long ago, when I did a "vc-register" operation, Emacs would automatically open a buffer for the "Description." This would allow me to enter a description of the file being registered for RCS, CVS or SVN. Now I find that "vc-register" just registers the file with no description. I've looked in the vc*.el files and cannot see where it even considers opening a buffer for the description. Is this a feature that has been removed?What backend are you using? If you are using a distributed versioning system (bzr, git, hg, ..), I think this is expected behaviour as registering just adds the file but doesn't commit. You get the chance to add your comments when you finally commit.Thanks, ChrisHope this helped. |
