Re: [Clamav-devel] Virus DB Repo
From: Mohammed Al-Saleh moealsa...@gmail.com Is the virus database updated through a repository (for example svn or cvs)? I would like to see how virus database changes over time. Interesting. I guess there's nothing stopping you from putting the database in a git repo or similar. You could do a commit each time just before calling freshclam. Edwin's response: No. I found surprising, I must say... wouldn't it make sense to use git or similar so you could easily revert bad signature additions? :) Regards, David. ___ http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-devel.html Please submit your patches to our Bugzilla: http://bugs.clamav.net

Edwin's response: No. I found surprising, I must say... wouldn't it make sense to use git or similar We have a database of signatures and logs of what each update did. Using git (or another VCS) here would just complicate things, since we'd need to synchronize that with our internal DB both ways (in case of reverts). so you could easily revert bad signature additions? :) We can already drop the signature in the next update easily.

Re: [Clamav-devel] Virus DB Repo
I agree that this would be neat as long as the current way is still available. I don't want to have to install git or svn on the servers just to be able to update my clam sigs.

You can look at the emails on clamav-virusdb@ (although signature removals don't show up there).
