The problem is the linebreak conversion that WinCVS does. It translates every #10 to #13#10 for ascii files.

try to DIFF it.

To fix the problem with the binary files there is only one solution. Remove the files from cvs and then then readd the files again with 'cvs add -kb <files>'

I renamed the one I have locally and then got the new version from CVS. It was corrupted. I then tried to re-commit the good icon (I finally had to use -f to get it to commit) and then tried to re-get it. The icon was still corrupted. Then, I noticed something rather odd; the good icon I have is is 7.18 KB, but the corrupted one is 1.19 KB. I'm scratching my head about this one.

One needs a special option to commit binary files. -kb or so, otherwise CVS will try to DIFF it.

I have no idea.

The only icon used at this particular moment is mainicon.ico, so I tested it. I renamed the one I have locally and then got the new version from CVS. It was corrupted. I then tried to re-commit the good icon (I finally had to use -f to get it to commit) and then tried to re-get it. The icon was still corrupted.

If they are using WinCVS on their Windows machines it should be figuring out that the ICO's are binary in the first place. If not then that is the problem.
