NPE and out of sync warning in repository w/o commits

If the reports come out fine, then there's most likely no reason to worry.

Try to run "cvs update" before "cvs log" and see if the warning goes away.

If it persists, then try running StatCVS with the "-verbose" parameter and check if the output provides any clues as to what the problem is. Please post a snippet here if you think something is wrong.

Now it is clear what causes this: I had just created a test repository with only the initial import:

Parsing CVS log 'test.log'
Generating report for prj into
Using default CSS file (statcvs.css)
test/testfile should be at 1.1 but is at 1.1.1.1
Log and working copy are out of sync. Reports will be inaccurate.
Creating CSS file at 'statcvs.css'

It should be noted also here that I get an Exception when running StatCVS for a repository without any changes, just the initial import. A single commit will cause the Exception disappear. Should be easy to reproduce, just create a new repo and import something, and make no changes.

Ah, interesting. Thanks. I'm renaming this and moving it over to the bug tracker.

The NPE reported in a comment is fixed. The sync warning still remains.

I saw the same problem and got rid of the warning by doing a "cvs log -b" command. I guessed that StatCVS didn't like seeing change log entries for other branches since the doc says they only support the default branch.
