Hi
I did a very stupid mistake while trying to commit something ona new
machine.
when i tried to commit a file , I did not have a default editor set
up.
so it opened a vim editor to log in my messages. Since I am not
familiar with
vim, I killed th cvs commit job (using kill -9 pid). Then when I set
the editor to be emacs it and tried to commit the same file I get the
error message
cvs commit: cvs commit: [11:28:28] waiting for melroy's lock
[11:28:28]
I looked at the past archives and cvs manual to look for this solution
and it appears that this message occurs when two people
simulatenously try to commit something. anyhow can someone suggest a
simple solution? Is there alock file
which I should look for and delete?
Thanks a lot
Melroy
