RE: Re: [viewvc-users] rebuild adds parent directory

Hi Mike,

Thanks for your help.

The version I'm using is "Powered by ViewVC 1.1.21"

Your description of the problem is accurate. There is only 1 CVS repository and only 1 directory named CVSROOT, just as you described.

Here are some of the parameter settings in my viewvc.conf file:

cvs_roots = cvs: /opt/whatever/cvsroot
#root_parents =
default_root = cvs
root_as_url_component = 0

Thanks again!

Steve
