Hello,

Can someone suggest what can be done to handle large files in cvs. When I do a commit to large file (more than 2 GB) I get the following error:
"No such file or directory exists"

Please let me know if someone knows a solution for this.

Thanks and Regards,

What version of CVS are you using? CVS 1.11 doesn't support large files
but CVS 1.12 does.

Hello Larry,

Thank you so much for your reply. I wanted to know what will be the
difference between 1.12 and the version I run (1.11.17). Also if I could
know how to update the version.

Much appreciated.

Thanks and Regards,
