Hi

Just so I understand something before I kill a load of CVS directories:

        1) checked out a copy of the current tree off my 2.2.6 CDROM
                # cd /usr/current
                # cvs -R -d /cdrom/CVSROOT co src
        2) updated this using CVSup version 15.4

2) fell over when it wanted to delete a directory, the rm failed as 1) had
left a CVS directory. I just deleted this and the offending directory and re ran
 2).

Question is, should I
        # cd /usr/current/src
        # find . -name CVS -a type dir | xargs rm -rf
                (well maybe something a little safer)
to prevent similar problems in any furture CVSup's?

Duncan
