Re: older version of cvs in Cygwin?

This seems to be an older version of cvs, and SourceForge's cvs server
won't always interoperate with it to do e.g. the cvs remove command.
Choices to install are 1.11.23-2 and the older 1.11.22-1.

It is the last released

Well, not exactly.  CVS has both a "stable" and a "feature" branch.

Stable release 1.11.23 is the most recent, but feature release 1.12.13, while about 3 years older, has several features that never made it into 'stable'. Cygwin-32bit used to have the latter, but it was, well, 'side-graded' to the former because of a problem discussed in the above-mentioned email thread.
