No. >Does other versioning systems such as subversion offer >this functionality? Not that I know of. CVS is a client server versioning system. Just like FTP is a client server file transfer protocol. Someone had to install FTP server on that remote server - just ask them to install cvs server (or cvsnt server for Linux/Windows/Unix) there as well. Or use one of the many free or non-free cvs servers available on the net (go check google). >instead of the files having names such as >/whatever/CVS/some_module/foobar.c (or whatever), it >would now be >ftp://somewhere.com/whatever/CVS/some_module/foobar.c >(or something like that). That's your sandbox - not your repository. >Maybe it can be done invisibly if some sort of "map/mount ftp as >drive/directory" tool existed. Sounds like you are using windows - in which case you are probably using CVSNT, the newsgroup for which is here: http://www.cvsnt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cvsnt or news://news.cvsnt.org/support.cvsnt Regards, Arthur Barrett _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
