to check the pid that is writing to the file. Then use
Code:
ps -ef | grep the_pid_you_got
to get the command that is writing to the file.
Once you get that, find who or what is running this command and either stop it from being run or change the destination directory of this STA file that it writes to.

cvs-switchroot
CVS-SWITCHROOT(1) BSD General Commands Manual CVS-SWITCHROOT(1)NAME
cvs-switchroot -- change repository or tag in a cvs working copy
SYNOPSIS
cvs-switchroot [-T] newroot [file ...]
cvs-switchroot [-T] - srcpath [file ...]
DESCRIPTION
The cvs-switchroot utility manipulates a CVS working copy directly, modifying the information stored in the administrative subdirectory and
saving space by hardlinking if possible.
If the -T option is given, the sticky tag is operated on, otherwise, the repository path (CVSROOT).
The information (Tag or Root) is set to the same as in srcpath if the first non-option argument newroot is a sole dash ('-'), the literal
value newroot otherwise.
EXAMPLES
Change all Root information in the current sandbox to /cvs:
$ cvs-switchroot /cvs .
Set all roots in the current working directory and all its subdirectories to the Root of the parent directory:
$ cvs-switchroot - .. .
Hardlink the Tag information in the current working directory, for example /usr/src, and /usr/ports with each other:
$ cvs-switchroot -T - . . /usr/ports
SEE ALSO cvs(1)HISTORY
cvs-switchroot has existed in the MirBSD source tree since 2005. It was added to Debian's cvs package in 2011.
CAVEATS
cvs-switchroot depends on mksh.
