- Question:* I get the following error during a cvs checkout with a tag name:
lock.c:222: failed assertion `strncmp (repository, current_parsed_root->directory, strlen (current_parsed_root->directory)) == 0' cvs [server aborted]: received abort signal cvs [server aborted]: received abort signal lock.c:222: failed assertion `strncmp (repository, current_parsed_root->directory, strlen (current_parsed_root->directory)) == 0'
- Answer:* the workaround for such problems is to create the tag in CVS once again e.g. :
cvs -d:pserver:<id>@<host>:/cvs co test/playground cd test/playground cvs tag -b <tagname> fstest.cxx
does the trick. The underlying problem is due to a corrupted tag file.
