Chaitanya Pinnamaneni commented on JENKINS-12582: ------------------------------------------------- We should also allow for CVS plugin to perform variable expansion on "Private Key Location" and "Known Hosts Location". This would be helpful while configuring slaves. > CVS-Plugin: Password file "${user.home}/.cvspass" is ignored under some > conditions > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: JENKINS-12582 > URL: https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-12582 > Project: Jenkins > Issue Type: Bug > Components: cvs > Environment: Tomcat6 / RHEL5 > Reporter: chrisabit > Assignee: Michael Clarke > Priority: Blocker > > Jenkins' new Netbeans-based CVS-Plugin doesn't use the ".cvspass" file. > Setting the password on every job isn't a suitable solution (huge number of > jobs, security issues). The ".cvspass" file should be used instead. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
