Description Pavel Rehak 2005-08-18 09:21:20 UTC 
latest q-build 200508161800

Update command executed on project/folder with localy modified files
(note: on file itself it recognizes changes and doesn't overwrite it)
it fetches fresh repository copies and overwrites localy changed files,
which inflicts huge data loss for user.
Comment 1 Maros Sandor 2005-08-18 10:10:23 UTC 
Library does not send Questionable request for new directories.
Comment 2 Maros Sandor 2005-08-18 12:26:09 UTC 
This happens if there are modified files in a directory and that directory (or
one of its parent directories) is not listed in CVS/Entries. Command-line CVS
fails with "cvs.exe update: move away <some file>; it is in the way" conflict
message.
Comment 3 Maros Sandor 2005-08-18 15:19:18 UTC 
Bug fixed by enhancing the CVS library. It now supports Created and
Update-existing server responses. Without them, we were unable to distinguish
between files that were sent as being New or Modified.
Verification steps: have some project checked out, modify some file (at least 2
directories under project root), remove file's parent directory from CVS/Entries
and try to Update the project. Error message should come up saying that a file
should be created but it already exists.
