Checking out results in nothing. I've tried from multiple systems to checkout a fresh copy and it results in no new copy.

directory When updating an existing copy it nukes the entire install leaving only the non-repo files (lib/ etc). Expected results: Updated or Checked out copy of the most recent copy of bugzilla.
Bugzilla_Stable no longer exists, because Bugzilla 4.2 is now the stable release, and there is no CVS mirror starting from 4.2. Bugzilla 4.0 was the last supported branch in CVS. Starting with 4.2, you have no other choice than using bzr (Bazaar).
Assignee: general → website
Component: Bugzilla-General → bugzilla.org
To prevent this problem, we will re-add the Bugzilla_Stable tag in CVS to point to 4.0.5. This is not the real stable release, but that's much better than having all the files deleted.

Severity: normal → blocker
Status: UNCONFIRMED → ASSIGNED
Ever confirmed: true
Summary: cvs checkout/update of Bugzilla_Stable broken → The Bugzilla_Stable CVS tag no longer exists and so using this tag deletes all files
dkl added the CVS tag, and it's now available.
