It gets a bit stranger.
Instead of using rsync -av to make a copy of the repository, i tried
cp -Rp
After the copy , i made the directory a symlink to its location on the
new drive.
This time updates worked! but add/commits failed.
bizarre.
instead of a softlink you might try:
mount --bind /new/repo/location/ /old/repo/location/
and see if it works...
which cvs version is on Ubuntu 8?
in the cvs News file
"Changes from 1.11.9 to 1.11.10:
...
* CVSROOTs which contain a symlink to a real repository should work.
...
"
And here I was thinking that I recalled the devs taking that out in the 11
series because of some security concern.
