Having it done on a Linux box I had no problems with it. However, I've made some changes, and imported the resulting sources in my company's CVS repository. What I've noticed in the process is that none of the binary files checked out from the postgres CVS repository (gifs, tars) are marked as binary (with -kb). Am I doing something wrong with the checkout ? On our local repository I can import the files as binary, this is not the issue, I just wonder if the postgres CVS repository is correctly set up ? Binary files handled as text could be a potential problem for somebody checking out on a non-unix system. Thanks, Csaba.
