Greetings,
One of our developers has reported the following behaviour from CVS. I
think I've found in the update code where this behaviour, the question is
whether there is a reason for this behaviour? Our developer expected the
timestamp to revert to the original co timestamp.
% cvs co foo/bar.cc
% cd foo
% ls -l
% rm bar.cc
% cvs update bar.cc
% ls -l
% rm bar.cc
% vi CVS/Entries (remove the line for bar.cc)
% cvs update bar.cc
% ls -l
The checkout gets the correct timestamnp on the file.
The first update gives bar.cc a timestamp which corresponds to the
time you issued the update command.
The second update give bar.cc the timestamp of the original
checkin time of bar.cc
