According to the rc4 documentation, unless you specify a path, it will try and find cvs in your path. So it looks like your cvs binary doesn't support the -P flag, (perhaps it does it by default, which is how I think it definitely should be)
If you want to use the built in cvs implementation, you need to do something like this... <cvs-update usesharpcvslib="true"/> Or alternatively, disable directory pruning, (the -P option) <cvs-update pruneempty="false" /> It's probably the pruneempty flag defaulting to true which is causing the -P to be generated in the commandline used to invoke the external cvs. Cheers, Karl P > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf > Of Nicholas Duane > Sent: Wednesday, September 06, 2006 3:31 PM > To: NAnt-users@lists.sourceforge.net > Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [NAnt-users] cvs-update fails with no args; -P > option not supported > > Not sure if I already sent this as I accidently hit tab and > return.
