I tried your example and I didn't get a hang. I tried it using only a
touched file, a text file with unix line endings and a text file with dos
line endings... :/
Cat you send the output of `cygcheck -svr' as a non-compressed plain-text
attachment to the list please :::::::::::-)

Hmmm thats odd, I don't get the same results with rcs as you do so that's
expected ;-) Try rebooting and I'm guessing you have admin privs so if after
a reboot you still get apermissions error just reset the security on the
file(s).

Please run the following from a bash prompt:
1) "which ci" and "type -a ci", and paste the output of both in your
message
2) "cygcheck -svr > cygcheck.txt", and include cygcheck.txt as an
uncompressed text attachment, as Elfyn recommended
3) "strace -o ci.strace -w ci foo.txt &", wait until ci hangs (you'll see
its output in a separate window), and look at the end of ci.strace for
clues. You may be asked to post it (compressed) later (it might be a
good idea to paste the output of "wc /tmp/ci.strace", and, maybe,
"tail -10 ci.strace" before ci is killed, into your message, though).
By the way, it's only worth doing steps 2 and 3 if step 1 shows something
like "/bin/ci" or "/usr/bin/ci" as the first entry in both cases. If
you get any other result, you're most likely not running the Cygwin RCS,
so this would be off-topic anyway.

Where abouts does rcs c{i,o} hang? You could strace a running/hanging c{i,o}
which may help finding the glitch. Or even better run in under gdb.
Could you provide a test-case on how to make it hang or what process you do
that makes it hang?

I am running into the same problem that Mr. Tolkin encountered
(ci and co hang on cywin). His original description is
http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2000-06/msg00018.html.
I asked him if he ever found a fix (I was unable to find one
anywhere on the cygwin mailing lists) and he replied
"No I gave up on this
and subsequently on cygwin."
Bummer. Has anything changed on this?
Thanks,
MD
