Problems with Basedir override and/or the cvs call

The problem im having is this i DO NOT SET basedir anywhere so that i can kick
off the build from a file in the /Project dir and have it make calls to
/Build/build.xml which has generic rules.. one of the rules is to update the
build number then commit it.

so when i try and override the basedir (which isnt specifically set) so that the
commit will occur in the correct directory i get an override error:

[property] Override ignored for basedir

i either need to be able to set basdir to the location where the file i am
trying to commit is, or pass a directory to cvs that tells it where to try and
run its command

which way is apropriate and is either possible?

i need to be able to commit the build number from within ant
