Category: Tasks Group: 0.85 >Status: Closed Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Merrill Cornish (mcornish) Assigned to: Clayton Harbour (drakmar) Summary: .cvspass overrides password attribute Initial Comment: According to Clayton Harbour, NAnt's built in CVS ignores the password attribute specified on the <cvs-*> task if there is a .cvspass file present. This behavior is counterintuitive since usually the most recent/most volatile specification of a value overrides. For example, an environment variable overrides a value hardcoded in a program; but a command line argument overrides an environment variable. Merrill ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Clayton Harbour (drakmar) Date: 2004-10-08 07:41 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=677222 The proposed solution from feedback is to remove (depricate) the password attribute on the cvs tasks>. The reason behind this is the password is not accessable or needed for all protocols (i.e. cannot redirect standard input for ssh, sspi does not require a password). Along with removing the password attribute a new task will be created (the <cvs-passfile /> task) to handle the addition of new cvs roots or change of passwords in a .cvspass file. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=402868&aid=1042442&group_id=31650 ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
