Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
An updated cvs package that fixes a bug is now available.
Description
CVS (Concurrent Version System) is a version control system.
This updated cvs package fixes an issue with processing (tagging) large
numbers of files with long names, which caused problems with calling
scripts due to the command line arguments being too long. In these updated
packages, this has been resolved by adding possibility to pass arguments
through standard input.
All users of cvs are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which
resolves this issue.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied.
