What's wrong with this? Applies cleanly to my pristine wine-CVS, tried with 
patch taken from wine-patches bounce.

Whoever rejected with "fails to apply" please reply with the output.

We don't use CVS anymore. Now we use git. You need to first upgrade to
git, then modify the .gitignore file.

Obviously I use CVS and the ? ......fake status reports are a nuissance. The 
fact you don't care about CVS doesn't mean everybody has to switch, especially 
since git isn't supported as widely as CVS.

Can someone clarify if there's a relation between .gitignore and .cvsignore 
files? Are they synchronized somehow?

If .cvsignore is generated from .gitignore then there's something wrong.

If .cvsignore files are stored separately in CVS then the patch can be applied 
only there by AJ (I've seen the repository being locked by user "juillard" 
while applying the patches).

They are generated, IIRC they get updated when the makefile changes or
something like that. The scripts are in tools.git if you want to improve
them.

What do you mean by "git isn't supported as widely as CVS"?

In any case, CVS is *ancient*. You really should learn how to use git,
specially if you want to contribute to wine. It'll make your life easier,
after the initial learning curve.

For instance, I'd hate to do regression testing using CVS, instead of a git
bisect.
