Right, I did this with absolute.oc and on the client I now get:
cvs add absolute.oc
cvs server: re-adding file absolute.oc (in place of dead revision 2.2)
cvs commit -m "Re-arranged files" absolute.oc
Checking in absolute.oc;
/opt/cvsroot/ORIGIN/Libraries/DataArea/NumberItem/absolute.oc,v <--
absolute.oc
cvs server:
/opt/cvsroot/ORIGIN/Libraries/DataArea/NumberItem/absolute.oc,v:
revision 1.1 too low; must be higher than 2.2
cvs server: could not check in absolute.oc
Argh! The old files was version 2.2, so why is cvs not noticing and
setting the version number to 2.3?
Help! Any ideas?
Thanks for the help,
Ross
