This is such a GREAT idea!!! Could it PLEASE become part of the
mainstream?!? I was planning to add subcommands to CVS, but dread having to
change the client, since I have no clue how to rebuild it like I can the
server side. With this feature I can just add scripts.
For example, when someone imports a new module the group ownership is always
that user's default group defined in /etc/passwd. In order for the user to
change the group, he has to call CM to have them "chgrp" the tree. Wouldn't
"cvs pragma chgrp me:diffgroup foo" be so much nicer? Or how about "cvs
pragma ls -la foo"?? Or even "cvs pragma setfacl -whatever foo"?
Please???
