Are your referring to the thread "[cvsnt] Binary files are modified on
commit"? That thread does not seem to lead lead to a solution. The
discussion occurred in March, while the stable build I am using is dated
May, I presume that such an issue is treated with high priority and a fix
should appear as soon as possible.

Also the thread is about "import" and MacCVS. I am using update and WinCVS,
although I do not know if this affects anything.

Please help me locate the fix if one is available as the repository cannot
be trusted as it is right now. Should I switch to the latest Release
Candidate? Note that I do not have the resources to set up a test repository
and do extensive testing so I prefer to upgrade to stable builds as a
general rule.

Tony, do you recall fixing this problem?  The history page mentions "Fix
problem with deleting then resurrecting binary files" in build 1969 (the
stable version that I am using); can this be related?

This was discussed earlier.
Been solved but don't know the actual build when the fix was done.

Subject: [cvsnt] BUG: Corrupted binary files


Update a binary file on a branch. Check it out and compare the files, they
are different. The file is committed as binary with the '-kb' option . This
does not happen on all files. I did not test on HEAD.

When the bug was detected I was using CVSNT version 2.5.01.1927, then I
upgraded to the latest stable build 2.5.01.1969, the problem persists. Does
the latest release candidate (build 1976) solve this problem?

I can submit an RCS file that exhibits the problem if it helps.


Thanks for your concern.
