In order to be able to support multiple different configurations, WinCvs does not read the HOME variable (though it should probably use it as a default IMO). Instead you have to set the HOME folder on the CVS tab of the Admin|Preferences dialog. Another thing to consider is what did you put inside your .cvsignore file? Also note that besides the global .cvsignore you could also place .cvsignore files in individual directories of your sandbox. > How can I confirm that it is reading the files? Ignored files should be displayed with a different icon and State text and you should be able to toggle their visibility using the Show Ignored file filter (View|File Filter|Show Ignored or the respective toolbar button). Hope this helps. -- Oliver ---- ------------------ JID: ogiesen at jabber.org ICQ: 18777742 (http://wwp.icq.com/18777742)
