i have repoman aliased to 'repoman -q -q'. when i tried to commit something today, it simply exited on me: $ repoman commit -m 'Version bump.' $ echo $? 1 after pondering for a while, i remembered that i was doing -q -q via the alias. so re-running without the alias: $ repoman commit -m 'Version bump.' [ERROR] !!! Please fix the following issues reported from cvs: (U,P,M,A,R,D are ok) [ERROR] !!! Note: This is a pretend/no-modify pass... [ERROR] C ChangeLog U Manifest A coreutils-8.9.ebuild U coreutils-8.7.ebuild i guess the point is to hide the output of harmless changes, but it shouldnt be hiding the output if repoman is going to exit because of it (the C status)
Pretty much anything CVS related is now obsolete
