Maybe John (cc'd) can clarify the impact or > severety of this. If you have a symlink inside the collection where CVSup expects a directory it can cause problems in some cases. CVSup tries to mirror things exactly, and that includes the property of whether something is a symbolic link or not. I changed it from an error to a special case with a warning in response to some complaints about that, but it's not foolproof. The warning is there for a reason, and if you see it you should seriously consider rearranging your filesystems. There are certain kinds of obscure updates that can happen which will cause it to remove your symbolic link and replace it with a real directory. It is OK for the "prefix=" in the supfile to refer to a symbolic link. The cvsup-mirror port takes advantage of that. I have never seen that produce the warning, and I don't think it should. The only dangerous thing is to have symbolic links _inside_ a collection. There should probably be an option to make CVSup follow all symbolic links on the client side. You'd then lose the ability to mirror symbolic links, obviously, but that's OK for a CVS repository. John -- John Polstra John D. Polstra & Co., Inc.
