Jamie,
thanks for pointing out the special case of binary files! Since I don't know how to work with them myself, could you add a little note about that (you'll find an edit link at the bottom of the page)?

Thanks!

I fixed the cvswrappers file (in the /cvsroot/CVSROOT dir) a while ago but did not fix the existing binary files. Any new ones added should be -kb automatically (unless they don't match the existing cvswrappers extensions).

Jeff's comprehensive cvswrappers file is the best way to handle this for the future. You can read about the problem and a solution for exisiting files in the Cederqvist manual. (You can check an individual file with the cvs status command.)

I've put a list of non-kb'ed files on my site. I didn't check them individually, but they all listed as "modified" when I cvs up on a Windows machine.

Jamie, I did a cvs admin -kb on all the files on your list maybe you could try another checkout and see that they come across unchanged...

Looks perfect, Jeff.  Thanks!  And apologies for the tag goof in my last post.
