Installed from:    Mandriva RPMs

When trying to do a cvs update somewhere where you have only read access, cervisia does not see that cvs is in trouble and assumes that files are normally updated/fixed and seems to ignore the cvs error (cannot access to files).

Here is what is displayed in the log panel :

P accounts.data
cvs [update aborted]: cannot open .new.accounts.: Permission denied
[A quitté dans l'état 1]  <- (translated is 'has quitted with state 1')

</medium desc>




<long desc>
Logged as a normal user, I go in /var/www/html in order to get the latest version of my website, from my distant cvs repository (ext, cvs_rsh  + key ...)

I know that I have only read access on /var/www/html. But just 'to see', I tried to do a cvs update with cervisia... to see what happens with a read only filesystem.

Suprisingly, cervisia has updated the status of all files.
All files that needed an updated are reported now as 'up to date'...
But files (obviously) are not modified ...

It sounds like cvs 'assumes' or predict the new status of files without verifying it once cvs command is finished.

Of course, if I do a cvs status with cervisia, status are reverted back to their real states of files.

Just for information, I logged as another user just because this one had a ssh ready key and cervisia do not ask continuusly for the password while in this case.
With the user who has full access to /var/www/html, cervisia always ask for the password.
  <hint>It would be cool if cervisia was storing the password</hint>

The up-to-date status bug is bug 79616.

This one should be about a sudo of sorts akin to OS X'.
