So I finally decided to wait till the update ends. The update took 13 megabytes of data sent to the CVS server. I don't know what was in that 13 megabytes, but the received data was only about 1 megabytes...the CVS pserver protocol isn't as clever regarding the detection of changes while minimizing transfered data like rsync is as soon as the client side detects possible changes it transfers the complete local file to the server which does a local diff then and guess how it detects local changes? by comparing the files modification time to whatever is recoded in the CVS/Entries files now guess what made it think all your files were locally changed over the weekend :( -- Hartmut Holzgraefe hartmut@six.de http://www.six.de +49-711-99091-77
