Description pmccabe 2008-04-23 18:19:01 UTC 
I have several projects that have been imported into CVS previously

I have several new files, in more than one project.  When I select more than one file, and try to commit, I get an error
cvs [add aborted]: there is no version here; do 'cvs checkout' first

However, I can check in the files 1 by 1 no problem.

This did not happen in 6.0

Is it so that those files are in different projects and those projects are in the root of your CVS checkout?

/some/dir/              (no CVS metadata here)
/some/dir/project1      (CVS metadata here)
/some/dir/project1/file1
/some/dir/project2/     (CVS metadata here)
/some/dir/project2/file2
Comment 3 pmccabe 2008-06-17 13:42:41 UTC 
yes, this is exactly the case.
Comment 4 Maros Sandor 2008-06-17 13:46:58 UTC 
This has never worked since the CVS module tries to execute the 'add' command in the directory that is the closest
common ancestor of both files (/some/dir) and fails because /some/dir itself is not in CVS. I wonder if other commands
work such as commit.
