2225.0. "Source control info for nonexistent file" by AOSG::FILTER (Automatic Posting Software - mail to flume::puck) Mon May 06 1996 14:40

Subj: 	Source control info for nonexistent file

There are two files in the ptqa tree that I
can't bcreate because of existing source control
info.  All I really want to do is put the corresponding
files from xtests.x11r6 here [this tree got a copy
of qaqc rather than xtests.x11r6, and this would fix
the current problem].

How do I get it to work?  Any & all help much appreciated!

xtc3d0:tt$> pwd
/sbox/ptqa/src/test/cde/comp_suites/tt

[The other file is Imakefile]
xtc3d0:tt$> bcreate runTests.cpp

[ ./test/cde/comp_suites/tt/runTests.cpp ]
[ source control information already exists in file: 
"./test/cde/comp_suites/tt/runTests.cpp,v" ]
xtc3d0:tt$> echo $SANDBOX

John,
Since the file already exists, use 'bco' rather than 'bcreate'.  BUT
if it already exists, won't you be stomping on the existing version?  Check
with Paul Hantman & Al Carito to see if what you want to do makes sense
and is correct for the qaqc environment.
