Description John Baker 2003-03-08 03:45:56 UTC 
To reproduce:

using CVS, local repository:

If a file has been committed to the repository and
the user tries
to commit again (note, user can't tell whether the
file has been checked
out or not)  there is a misleading error message
printed to the Output window:

cvs commit:  nothing known about "'Empty.java'
cvs [commit aborted] : correct above errors first!

>From the commandline, if `cvs commit Empty.java`
is executed then
no error message is printed.
Comment 1 Richard Gregor 2003-03-10 09:42:34 UTC 
The behaviour  should be the same as on commandline. Scheduling for 4.0
Comment 2 Martin Entlicher 2003-04-30 09:49:19 UTC 
You have used a force commit option, didn't you?
If yes, then this problem is already fixed by the fix issue #27997 in
NB 3.5.
It's actually a duplicate.
