Usually, to avoid confusion, I don't even do that: I just set the cvsroot for the few commands that need it using the -d switch. For example: cvs -d :ext:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/cvs co foo cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvs/bar login cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvs/bar co quux ... then, after that, drop the -d switch and its argument. -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
