Subject: bug#4685: 23.1; vc-rcs doesn't recognize status when checkin-switch -l
Date: Fri, 09 Oct 2009 10:30:59 +0100

Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the bug-gnu-emacs <at> gnu.org mailing list,
and to the gnu.emacs.bug news group.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

It seems that emacs doesn't recognize the vc-status of the file when I
set the variable vc-rcs-checkin-switches to "-l". The first time I
execute vc-next-action for checking in the file is checked in and then
checked out automatically because of the "-l" switch. The %% are not
present in the mode line. The second time I run vc-next-action it
attempts to run co instead of ci. On the other hand, running
vc-next-action through vc-dir doesn't seem to have a problem. I only
observed this in emacs 23; emacs 22 is also working as expected.

If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
    `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file
c:/emacs/etc/DEBUG for instructions.
