Mike,
Probably what happened is that :
- The .lib file didn't have a resource fork at all : as such MacCvs doesn't
think twice, it tells to the cvs server that the file is single forked.
- But it means that it looses the file type in the operation. To force the
issue, you can do what you did, or you simply open-up InternetConfig and set
the .lib mac type to be the correct type. This is what I do for .mcp files
for example.
