Hi

On Eclise 3.0 M1.

When I try to cvs update it works if and only if there is no new files added
to the CVS repository.

If I need to download a file, I receive a :

The server reported an error while performing the cvs update command.
Details >>
invalid option --C.

My CVS repository resides on a OSX.
The bug appear both from an osX and a WIn clients

See the FAQ:
http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/~checkout~/platform -vcm-home/docs/online/cvs_features2.0/cvs-faq.html?rev=1.35& amp;content-type=text/html#server_6

"This error indicates that your server version is CVS 1.10 or before.
The -C option was introduced in version 1.11. See above for supported
CVS versions."

I seem to recall that OSX has CVS 1.10 installed by default. You
probably need to upgrade.

That is, upgrade your version of CVS, not your OS!

which is most easily done by using fink (and/or the FinkCommander on MacOS
X)
