My cvs is 1.11.5. CVSROOT=$PWD/cvs # create a local CVS repository if you don't have one cvs init mkdir foo touch foo/bar cd foo cvs import -msnafu foo bar fubar cd .. cvs checkout -d bar foo .../src/emacs -Q C-x C-f bar/bar # for me, any file under a local CVS repository At this point, *Messages* contains: For information about the GNU Project and its goals, type C-h C-p. Note: file is write protected Loading vc-cvs...done Now do C-x v l, and the window splits with bar at the top and a window showing *vc-change-log* at the bottom. BUG: The *vc-change-log* buffer is empty (and its window is 3 lines high). At this point, *Messages* contains: For information about the GNU Project and its goals, type C-h C-p. Note: file is write protected Loading vc-cvs...done Loading vc... Loading easymenu...done Loading vc...done Running cvs in the background... Loading log-view... Loading easy-mmode...done Loading log-view...done Interestingly, if I C-x o C-x v l, then *vc-change-log* is correctly generated (though its window is still 3 lines high). *Messages* now contains: For information about the GNU Project and its goals, type C-h C-p. Note: file is write protected Loading vc-cvs...done Loading vc... Loading easymenu...done Loading vc...done Running cvs in the background... Loading log-view... Loading easy-mmode...done Loading log-view...done Running cvs in the background... done Note this time I get a " done". Note also that this is not specific to C-x v l. Checkin a change to bar, then: .../src/emacs -Q bar/bar C-u C-x v = RET RET RET # diff between previous 2 revisions I get a 3 line high *vc-diff* window where the buffer contains "No differences found." Repeating the above command in bar will generate the correct diff, and *Messages* gets a message with " done" as above.
