Description Ralf Habacker 2003-11-29 01:06:13 UTC

Version:           3.0.0-beta1 (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
Compiler:          gcc 2.95 
OS:          Cygwin

Windows does not distinct upper and lower filename cases and checking out the kdevelop source on windows produces a name clash error in the path kdevelop/vcs/cvs, which results that the dir cvs is stored in the CVS dir. 

A possible solutions seems to me to rename kdevelop/vcs/cvs to kdevelop/vcs/cvsx or anything.

The good news is that you do not need those files if you use cervisia from HEAD.

And you are advised to use cervisia from HEAD it will give you extra flexibility!!

Just edit the vcs/Makefile.am to not include the cvs directory. Compile and that's it!

Nice to hear, but this isn't the real problem. The problem is that "cvs co kdevelop" fails on windows.

According to http://www.cvshome.org/docs/manual/cvs-1.11.7/cvs_7.html#SEC74 we should bother the cvs admin again ... :-(
