Description

The cvs scm plugin is appending a slash to the module name when using the release plugin ( also am unable to use continuum in multiproject mode due to a similar issue. If the cvs command printed below is executed the checkout fails. If the leading slash is removed the checkout succeeds ( WinCVS is the client).

Fuller details of the problem are on the Continuum list -
