Description Jim des Rivieres

Build I20040316

0. New install, brand new workspace (important)
1. Open CVS perspective
2. New Repository
Host: dev.eclipse.org
Repository path: home/eclipse
User: (...)
Password: (...)
Connection type: extssh
Validate Connection on Finshed: checked

Observe: The repo is added but there is nothing in HEAD, Branches, or Versions.

Expectation: Should have failed validation.

Currently the extssh validation only runs 'cvs version' and doesn't validate the
path. We could possibly run '-n update' to validate the repo location also.
