I'm working on an [[rcs]] plugin for CVS, in order to integrate ikiwiki at sites where that's all they've got. What's working so far: web commit (post-commit hook and all), diff, add (under certain conditions), and remove. What's not working: with rcs_add(), iff any of the new page's parent dirs aren't already under CVS control and the post-commit hook is enabled, the browser and ikiwiki stall for several seconds trying to add it, then time out. (If I kill ikiwiki when this is happening, it cvs adds the topmost parent that needed adding; if I wait for timeout, it doesn't. I think.) If I disable the post-commit hook and do the same kind of thing, the page is created and saved.
In case you're lucky enough not to know, cvs adds on directories are weird -- they operate immediately against the repository, unlike file adds:
$ cvs add randomdir
Directory /Users/schmonz/Documents/cvswiki/repository/ikiwiki/randomdir added to the repository
Can you offer an educated guess what's going wrong here? --[[Schmonz]]
