Description _ ttran 2005-10-21 16:45:48 UTC 
Steps to reproduce

- check out core module from NB CVS
- switch to Files tab, open the file core/launcher/unix/nbexec
- make some edits in this file
- right click on the file in explorer, CVS -> Diff.  Got quite a few exception
dialogs with "null" as a message

I will attach the log file

Comment 2 _ ttran 2005-10-21 16:48:21 UTC 
An idea: nbexec is not shown in project logical view.  This make makes a difference
Comment 3 _ ttran 2005-10-23 20:31:08 UTC 
yet another reproducible test case: I have this file modifed locally

core/swing/tabcontrol/src/org/netbeans/swing/tabcontrol/plaf/AquaSlidingButtonUI.java 

Trying to diff it against CVS ends in repeatable NPEs

Both core and core/swing/tabcontrol are projects.  I had the latter open in the GUI

I bumped the priority to P1.  This bug blocks the normal IDE workflow.

I was able to reproduce it if I ran IDE from my local CVS workdir.

/shared/data/ccvs/repository/javacvs/cvsmodule/src/org/netbeans/modules/versioning/system/cvss/ClientRuntime.java,v
 <--  ClientRuntime.java
