Then why didn't you put it back the way it had been when it worked? When someone does a cvs login, cvs records the
valuefor CVSROOT.
You made everyone's cvs login fail.
I don't see the sense in that.
And then you diddle round endlessly instead of telling me what I had to do to fix YOUR mistake.
I hope you're in better shape by beta time.
And instead of componding the problem with rudeness, listen to it. You don't have to like the message or the language,
butthere are reasons for both.
