Hi

Apologies in advance if this question has been answered before, I didn't
find it on this NG. I am completely new to CVS (having used Continuus a few
years ago); I am checking in a project which is quite old but work is still
continuing on it. The problem is that the version checked in is 1.1.1. Now
My project is already at the 1.9 build 10xx stage.

I was trying to explicitly set the version number while checking in but I
can't find any option to do so. Even after check in I can't find a way to
change the version number of the checked in project.

Please advice cause without this it would cause me a lot of confusion, I
would have to maintain version numbers manually (CVS v1.1.3 = Product
version 1.9x).

I'm using wincvs as a client.

Are there any books or comprehensive documentation for using CVS, especially
on the Windows platform?

Thanks-Ariz
