For binary files, standard CVS stores the information in an "expand @b@;" header at the file level; if this header is absent the file is supposed to be text. CVSNT does not create this header, instead it uses "kopt b;" for revisions. So cvs2svn will handle such files as text, possibly leading to corruption of binary files. ------------------------------------------------------ http://cvs2svn.tigris.org/ds/viewMessage.do?dsForumId=1670&dsMessageId=3110862 To unsubscribe from this discussion, e-mail: [[email protected]].
