Betreff: WIN CVS: no connection to LINUX cvs

Hello everybody,

as a newbie on wincvs I have a problem connecting to a LINUX machine.
In the wincvs preferences I set the cvsroot on

:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/dwandel/cvs

which is the CVSROOT on the LINUX machine with IP address 192.168.98.3.
If I try to login in wincvs, I get the error message

NEW CVSROOT: :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/dwandel/cvs (password
authentication)
cvs -q login
(Logging in to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
cvs [login aborted]: connect to 192.168.98.3:2401 failed: Connection refused

*CVS exited normally with code 1*

I guess on the server side there is nobody listening on port 2401 nor there
is
a pserver (whatever this may be) running. Could anybody explain to me, how
it
works with LINUX ? Thanks in advance!!

Checking out a part of a tree

2000-04-27 Thread Bart Smeets

Hello,

I use WinCVS 1.1b10. If you have a module with a deep tree 
moduleX/dir1/dir2/dir3/dir4/dir5/dir6/dir7/dir8/dir9, is it possible to checkout only 
/dir8/dir9 to the root of my C-drive without having 
moduleX/dir1/dir2/dir3/dir4/dir5/dir6/dir7/dir8/dir9 on my harddrive, only 
c:/dir8/dir9/*.* ?
If yes, also without using the command line?

Bart.

Moving projects

2000-04-27 Thread Dave Sherohman

I'm managing my first (substantial) repository and have just realized that,
given the number of projects in it, it would be good to create a doc
meta-project and make all the various project-specific documentation projects
subprojects of it.  (i.e., instead of /proj and /projdoc, have /proj and
/doc/projdoc)

If I just rearrange the directories in the repository without telling CVS,
will it get upset?  If so, what's the cleanest way to do this?

Re: WG: WIN CVS: no connection to LINUX cvs

2000-04-27 Thread François Chenais

Hello

It works fine fo me.

Is the --allow-root=/home/dwandel/cvs  parameter is set in the
inetd.conf cvs entry ?
Is cvsserver on the Linux Box is listening on the port  2401 ? (see cvs
entry in /etc/inetd.conf and /etc/services )

Re: help! Problem running WinCVS v1.1b12 (beta) on NT.

2000-04-27 Thread Alexandre Parenteau

Alexandra,

 Looking at the generated application error log, it looks like null values
 are being passed to a strcmp() routine, hence the crash.  The stack dump is
 only partial, though, so I don't really know what's going on.

Even if it's partial, it could help us if you could copy this stack
crawl.

Regards,
alex.

 
 In any case, this is an unwelcome surprise.  Anyone else seen this?
 
 BTW, I run IE 5, so I would guess that the comdlg32.dll version (4.00) and
 comctl32.dll (5.81) are current enough to be OK.  Anything else I should look
 for as a possible culprit?
 
 When I uninstall version 1.1 and reinstall version 1.0.6, the older version
 continues to work well.
 
 Thanks for any help or insight you can offer.

Re: Moving projects

2000-04-27 Thread Donald Sharp

Yes you can do this.  The only caveat is that peoples checked
out trees will get confused on the next update or commit.  It's best
for this sort of thing to force everyone to start over with a new
checkout of the source tree, or your gonna have to go around and hack
everyones CVS/* directory structure in the checked out tree.

CVS won't get upset but your developers might.  If a developer has a 
module checked out that you move they will not be able to check it in.
You can recover from this by editing the CVS/Repository file in every 
module but this can be error prone.

I recommend that you make a copy of the repository which you can 
re-arrange to your hearts content.  I would write a script to do this so 
that it is reproducable.  Once it is arranged how you want it, get 
everyone to release their workspaces and you can re-arrange the repository 
and then have everyone check everything out again.

[Fwd: Disabling keyword substitution on branches only]

Hi,
Is it possible to turn off keyword substitution on a specified branch?
Using the 'cvs admin -ko' command seems to turn off keyword substitution
on the entire repository.
How do you turn keyword substitution back on?
Brief History:
We are using CVS 1.10 on Solaris 2.6.
A particular branch needs regular updates from the Main branch, and
keyword substitution was causing a lot of merge conflicts. This was disabled
using the admin command. This branch will not merge back into Main.
Thanks,

  Your problem is simply that inetd doesn't like commands longer than 30

  and call the script from inetd.

A little off topic: CVS features within ClearCase?

2000-04-27 Thread Noel L Yap

I'm planning to use ClearCase for a new project for various reasons (no flame
wars please).  However, I kind of like some things that CVS affords.  Has anyone
had any experience doing the following in ClearCase:
1. Having ClearCase do unreserved checkouts by default.
2. Having ClearCase infer which files to operate on (ie similar to plain vanilla
"cvs ci").
3. Having ClearCase do atomic operations (eg either all entities specified get
checked in or none of them do).

Thanks,
Noel

I'm sorry.  If you can _possibly_ get away with using CVS, do so.

 1. Having ClearCase do unreserved checkouts by default.

It's possible.  But if you've made changes you don't want to
check in yet, CC doesn't give you the equivalent of "cvs up" to
keep up with the latest.

The recommended way of doing it is for each developer to have
a private branch.  Then you can do reserved or unreserved checkouts
on the private branch, and the CC merge tools will help keep the
branch up to date and with merges back to the main.  A wonderful
example of how CC turns your every move into a saga.

 2. Having ClearCase infer which files to operate on (ie
 similar to plain vanilla "cvs ci").

Don't know.  How CC internally stores files depends on a heuristic
which is pretty good, ie, binary files are stored compressed, etc.

Note, there is no RCS keyword expansion.

 3. Having ClearCase do atomic operations (eg either all
 entities specified get checked in or none of them do).

I believe you can lock the vob to prevent others from using
it, which makes it essentially atomic (ie, no half-way state is
possible.  But I don't believe it offers "transactions", where
if something doesn't work, you can roll back to a known state.

Regards,

Mitch.
