Thanks, fixed.
(I still get an error after the fix, but the error is a different one,
so I presume it's unrelated.)
[Message part 3 (message/rfc822, inline)]
From 'emacs -Q':
(require 'pcvs)
(cvs-fileinfo-from-entries "/some/cvscontrolled/file.txt")
Gives the backtrace:
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Invalid time zone specification" utc)
format-time-string("%c" (22264 16191 0 0) utc)
cvs-fileinfo-from-entries("/Users/pok/test/cvscheckout/test.txt")
eval((cvs-fileinfo-from-entries "/Users/pok/test/cvscheckout/test.txt") nil)
elisp--eval-last-sexp(nil)
eval-last-sexp(nil)
funcall-interactively(eval-last-sexp nil)
call-interactively(eval-last-sexp nil nil)
command-execute(eval-last-sexp)
I ran into this while working in a CVS tree at work, where I use a
combination of PCL-CVS and ordinary vc. It is also reproducible from -Q
by calling cvs-examine on a checked out repository, followed by visiting
a cvs-controlled file.
format-time-string seems to have changed in 2015, while the call in
pcl-info.el is unchanged since 2003. I didn't dig into the history, but
I guess the signature changed at some point, perhaps from interpreting
non-nil as utc to requiring exactly t.
The fix is easy enough, s/'utc/t/ on line 468 of pcvs-info.el.
