Re^5: Learning How to Use CVS for Personal Perl Coding Practices

Yeah, you need to give the full path, e.g.

svn import . file:///home/neversaint/subversion/Project1 -m "Initial i
+mport"

Regarding the $EDITOR variable, you should set that to your favourite editor

export EDITOR=/usr/bin/emacs

or

export EDITOR=/usr/bin/vi

then you can specify the subversion commands without the -m and have it call the editor for manual message entry automatically if you prefer. Add the line to .bashrc to have it done for you automatically when you log in.
