see rkg set up cvs incorrectly.

watch rkg copy directories incorrectly, moving cvs data along too.

observe rkg issue an cvs -update command incorrectly.

marvel as cvs obliterates working code.

hear rkg's yelp of agony.

watch with amazement as rkg stabs mindlessly at cvs try to retrieve working code.

</my bad week>

ack!

zakzebrowski, for what it is worth, my suggested method of dealing with bad days to leave work and swim laps until your head clears.

happy ending: of course all the code was in CVS somewhere, buried back a few versions, and rkg was able to get it back, but darn it took too long. so now my (belated) new year's resolution is to read the cvs manual....

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.


Do you know where your variables are?
