This patch is incomplete. The same patch as in CVS HEAD [1] is also found
in cvs-1.11.22, and it does not work:
$ cvs-1.11.22 log ...
cvs-1.11.22 log: Unknown method (`extssh') in CVSROOT.
cvs-1.11.22 log: in directory .:
cvs-1.11.22 log: ignoring CVS/Root because it does not contain a valid root.
cvs-1.11.22 [log aborted]: received interrupt signal
There are three ingredients in Skudlarek's patch for 1.11.x [2] and my
adaptation for 1.12.x [3]:
1) Add extssh to the enumeration.
2) Recognize :extssh: when it occurs as part of CVS/Root.
3) Use "ssh" as remote shell, regardless of the CVS_RSH environment
variable.
Derek's commit contains only #1. #2 and #3 are missing.
Obviously Derek's commit has not been tested. I understand that you don't
want to install Eclipse and learn how to use it, just to verify an
interoperability issue. If you provide me a source tarball, I can test
it for you.
