I'm trying to setup CVS on a Linux box. I've created the directory for the
repository, and set CVSROOT. When I try to import a project, I get the
error:
cvs import: No CVSROOT specified! Please use the `-d' option
cvs [import aborted]: or set the CVSROOT environment variable.
Immediately after that, I display the environment variable and get the
following
>echo $CVSROOT
/backups.save/CVS
Directory CVS *DOES* exist under /backups.save as shown:
> ls -l /backups.save/CVS
total 0
drwxr-xr-x 2 michael users 48 2004-09-13 08:37 CVSROOT
What am I doing wrong? It appears that CVS is ignoring the CVSROOT
environment variable.
