The new (and hopefully final) directory names are "linux" and "binutils", as you might expect. The trick to get your old tree in sync with the new directory names, courtesy of Alan Modra: cd linux-2.3 for z in `find . -name Repository` do sed -e 's/-2.3//' $z > zzz && mv zzz $z done And for binutils-2.10: cd binutils-2.10 for z in `find . -name Repository` do sed -e 's/-2.10//' $z > zzz && mv zzz $z done You will no longer be able to update or run other commands on an old tree that hasn't been munged with the sed trick. Instead you'll run into a fake lock that will hopefully lead you to this message. e.g. [mang@lovehaze linux-2.3]$ cvs up cvs server: Updating . cvs server: [19:44:53] waiting for dir_renamed_read_your_mail's lock in /home/cvs/parisc/linux-2.3 I for one regard renaming directories in the repository to be a great evil. So please try not to create any unnecessary top-level directories. I'd be happy to help anyone create a branch instead of having to go through renaming again :) - Mike.
