You confuse me totally ??!
Here is something from the CVS FAQ:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
"cd" into your source directory and type:
cvs import -m "Message" [repos] [Vendor-Tag] [Release-Tag]
where [repos] is the relative directory pathname WITHIN THE
REPOSITORY that corresponds to the sources you are importing.
[..]
For example, if the FSF, CVS, Make and I are still active in the
year 2015, I'll import version 89.53 of GNU make this way:
cvs import -m "GNUmake V89.53" gnu/make GNU GNUMAKE_89_53
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
For me in this example the whole gnu-make directory-structure (which is
present in the current directory) will be imported in the repository-subdir
"gnu/make" of the repository which is set with the CVSROOT-variable.
And that is exactly what I wanted to do, import a complete directory-structure
to a repository-dir.
So I don't understand what's wrong with my command and why it should only
be possible to add single files ?????
with regards,
Matthias
