cvs problem

[Michael Labhard]

All:

    CVS does not commit properly on my cygwin installation because it
changes permissions on repository directories to read-only.  Here are the
permission after doing chmod 777 on /usr/local/cvs/dde/client:

    $ find /usr/local/cvs/dde -type d -exec ls -ld {} \;
drwxrwxrwx    7 mel      None            0 May 13 09:21 /usr/local/cvs/dde
drwxrwxrwx    2 mel      None            0 May 13 09:27
/usr/local/cvs/dde/client

Here is the cvs commit command:

mel@BORDERCOLLIE ~/projects/dde/client
$ cvs commit -m"Removed all pthread usage except for RunTest."
cvs commit: Examining .
Removing .DDEXmlRpcQueue.cpp.swp;
cvs [commit aborted]: cannot rename file
/usr/local/cvs/dde/client/,.DDEXmlRpcQu
eue.cpp.swp, to /usr/local/cvs/dde/client/.DDEXmlRpcQueue.cpp.swp,v:
Permission
denied


Here are the permissions on the same directory immediately after the cvs
commit command:

mel@BORDERCOLLIE ~/projects/dde/client
$ find /usr/local/cvs/dde -type d -exec ls -ld {} \;
drwxrwxrwx    7 mel      None            0 May 13 09:21 /usr/local/cvs/dde
dr--r--r--    2 mel      None            0 May 13 09:28
/usr/local/cvs/dde/client

I'm completely perplexed.  Anyone with any suggestions?  Thanks.
