Hi! I found a problem with file status. CVSNT v2.5.01.1990 (both client and server side) 1. Developer modified a file locally - "status" command say: Locally modified - It's OK. 2. Developers must use "edit" command, according to policy. Since he forgot to say "edit" before modification of file, now using "edit" command. (It's not a good time to do this, but what to do?) 3. And after that, neither update, neither commit, neither diff do nothing. After the "edit" command, the "status" command say: Up-to-date - It's not correct, because the file still really modified against the same repository revision. After "edit" command, cvs updated the CVS/Entries file. Updated the file date and time to the current, so cvs commands think, the file is up-to-date. But it's not true. I think, in this case, the status should remain "Locally modified". Zoltan
