[ANet-devel] Don't use "CVS import"

[Benoit N. <be...@ma...>]

When I saw this today, I had a weird feeling of "d=E9j=E0 vu"...

>N IP_Sample/.dont_delete
>N IP_Sample/FilesSpecific.h
>N IP_Sample/Makefile
>N IP_Sample/Makefile.in
>N IP_Sample/build_exclusion.txt
>N IP_Sample/build_locations.txt
>N IP_Sample/build_makefile.pl
>N IP_Sample/main.c
>N IP_Sample/IP_Sample/udpclient.c
>N IP_Sample/IP_Sample/tcpclient.c
>N IP_Sample/IP_Sample/syncserver.c

Prasanna did EXACTLY the same error I did a while ago
(Prasanna, don't take this personally, I did the same dumb error myself):

cd ANet/ANet_Daemon/Linux
cvs import IP_Sample

Oops! Look at
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/anet/

So, my conclusions:
1. "cvs import" is the most counter-intuitive command I've ever seen.
2. RTFM! Read the "man" page!
3. EVERYONE MUST STOP USING CVS IMPORT!

I'll change the docs tomorrow to stress that.

Remember everyone: no one can delete files in CVS since we don't have shell
access to the CVS server. So think twice before doing anything.
