Hello,
I run some linux scripts I used from time to time now under cygwin,
So I found a problem that has never been appeared under Linux.
The scripts I use are included.
Difftest.sh is the script that will be started by the user.
It will first update some repositories and then run "finds" over them to
Compress subversion/cvs keywords within ascii files.
After this diff will be run.
The problem is now that some (of thousands) files will produce the following error message:
Mv: cannot create regular file '/filename/': Permission denied
Interesting now is that the mentioned file has been removed!
So what I am assuming is, that during the mv the destination file has been removed, but then mv can not move over the temporary file created by sed - for unknown reasons.
So it might be a timing problem, or that sed has not closed the temp file correctly.
The subversion thing is not required - also the diff could be removed from the file. For testing you need a larger number of files.
Mit freundlichen Grüssen / With Kind Regards
