Why? If you're worried about the (incredibly minor and almost invisible on modern hardware) costs of encryption and such with SSH then why not use RSH for local connections?

A tag (aka symbolic name) can be either a branch tag or a revision tag -- they're both tags. You can tell if a tag is a branch tag or not by looking at the number of components: revision tags have an even number of components (e.g., 1.10, 1.1.1.1), branch tags have an odd number (e.g., 1, 1.1.1). -Larry Jones Nobody knows how to pamper like a Mom. -- Calvin ___ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs

Functionality differences between CVS and CVSNT (Newbie)
Hi What are the differences functionality wise between the main CVS and the CVSNT port? I have searched a few of the mailing lists but I have not come up with any concrete answers. Is there also a difference in the way security is handled? I understand that pserver is supported on CVSNT, but how does that differ from how it is supported under CVS? Is it possible to take a CVSNT repository and move it to CVS and vice versa? Why has CVSNT been backported to Linux/Unix, what is the point of that considering you have the original CVS for Linux/Unix?

Problem: Merging Trunk and Branch several times
Ahoi, I have a little problem with understanding CVS ... We need to develop on the trunk, where all general improvements and bugfixes are done (not release specific bugfixes!). We also develop new features in new branches, till they are stable. Sometimes, it is neccessary to merge bugfixes from the trunk to the branch. Sometimes, there will be a merge from the branch to the trunk. To avoid conflicts, we use update with 2 times -j to get just the changes and not the merges (the "own" code back). Therefor we set 2 tags (premerge and merge), for better access. The poor thing is, that we won't get the "conflict solutions", since the merged-tag will be set after the commit. (I've done a poor ascii-art for more details). --- time ---> branch +-(A1)-(T2)--+(A5)-(T5)-(A6) | code changes *code changes ^ | plus conflict * /*\ - root-of-brnch -+* * | \*/ * | code changes Vcode changes * trunk +-(A2)-(T1)-(A3)-(T3)--(A4)-(T4)-+ T1 = cvs tag premerge-brnch_1 T2 = cvs tag branch-brnch_1 A1 = cvs commit A2 = cvs commit A3 = cvs update -j root-of-brnch -j branch-brnch_1 emacs to solve conflict. cvs commit T3 = cvs tag merged-brnch_1 A4 = cvs commit T4 = cvs tag trunk_bugfix_1 T5 = cvs tag premerge_bugfix_1 A5 = cvs commit A6 = cvs update -j root-of-brnch -j premerge-brnch_1 -> conflict (again!)... now I got a conflict in the line, which causes the conflict before within the trunk-merge. Is it really neccessary to fix this conflict twice? How can I then ensure, that it will befixed the same way as in the trunk, and that the code is identical? Or do we use CVS the wrong way (how can this merges be used better)? Thanks in advance, Ralf Beckers ___ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
problems with timestamps at re- checkout
We had the following scenario: 1. user1: cvs co foo 2. user2: cvs ci foo-> commit new versions of foo/bla 3. user1: cd foo; make -> creates targets outside foo 4. user1: cd ..; cvs release -d foo -> target outside foo not deleted 5. user1: cvs co foo -> get foo with new version of foo/bla 6. user1: cd foo; make -> doesn't recreate target, because cvs co/up creates new files in working directory with the timestamp from last checkin. Why "cvs co/up" creates new files with the timestamp of their checkin ?An option to cvs co/up to force the current timestamp at new files would be very helpful. Or is there another way to get the target recreated ? Sören Rex
repository????
I am a CVS newbie. My jCVS frontend was apparently not working, so I looked in the CVS directory where the files that jCVS references reside. I found this file called "repository" and found that it was pointing to one directory above the root of the repository. So I went and changed this to the root. Later on I had second thoughts and going through the CVS documentation, found that "repository" contains the location in the repository where the parent folder of the CVS folder resides. I think the filename "repository" is misleading and that this filename should be deprecated and changed to "location" or something. Keeping intuitive naming conventions would help encourage people to study and improve CVS. Otherwise they would be on the lookout for other friendlier version control systems. I hope that this is useful. Regards, Sohrab Saran ___ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs

Commands like "ssh user@host cvs version" work fine. However, if I set WinCvs up to use ssh authentication, the cvs Console Window fails to terminate. WinCvs reports the command issued, information requested, and "CVS exited normally with code of 0" BUT THE CONSOLE WINDOW IS STILL OPEN and the 'fish' swimming. Killing the concole window lets things continue normally and cause any further problems under W2k but causes an exception error under W98.

SSH does authentication if used properly. I think you'll need to set CVSROOT to something like :ext:user@server:/path/to/repo the set CVS_RSH to /path/to/ssh.

Warning: read the WinCVS manual, it recommends that you set up your ssh configuration in such a way that you do not need to enter passwords or pass-phrases; otherwise, no matter what version you use, a "command prompt" window will always open (not a nice panel, like it happens with pserver), most times minimized so you have to search for it, and in that window you'll have to enter the password. You don't have to get rid of password and pass-phrase, you only have to configure ssh and key-handling for the later. > However, if I set WinCvs up to use ssh authentication, the cvs Console > Window fails to terminate.

If you want a little better behaviour (but not perfect) go back to version 1.3.6 . Second, you say you prefer 1.3.7, I don't agree ... that version had so many bugs that I stopped using it after one day. Last, the description of a persistent command window that needs to be closed by hand so WinCVS ends the operation sounds like a problem I been having with WinCVS (1.3.6 and 1.3.8) and JBuilder 6, but it only happens when I use in the server side CVS 1.11.2, going back to 1.11.1p1 solved those "processes" hanging.

Hello, My name is Rong. I am working in Ford Motor Company. We are using CVS as a revision control tool for our software development.

This branch is the main branch for our project. We have to restore it to every file under this directory and keep the original revision history. Please tell me how could we do this? Thanks.

There is nothing close to that related to CVS as far as I know; you may be mixing concepts with something that is stored in CVS and may have it's "headers and footers" changed by CVS through the use of keyword substitution (i.e. $Date$ which gives you the date the revision was checked in), if that's the case look at section 12 of the Cederqvist CVS manual.

You say no errors were observed - how are you checking for this? Do you have
the output of cvs itself or are you going by the exit status?
We saw mysterious partially failed checkouts when we had problems with our
server running out of memory when processing directories contain 120MB+
binary files (we had no choice in the matter) which resulted in "protocol
error". The operation is cancelled but a successfully error code is
returned, because of a bug in src/server.c which stops the error being
reported properly.

CVS on single NT machine -- username mismatch?
I have used cvs on a Unix machine for a while, now I would like to use it on a Windows NT machine -- but not as a server/client setup, just for a single user on a single machine, and I am quite happy with using a command-line version rather than installing several other packages to allow gui use. However, when I install the cvs.exe downloaded from cvshome.org, I get the message 'your apparent username is unknown to the system' I don't understand this, because I am logged on to the system with a local user account, and the username echoed by the message is correct; where is it mangling it .. and .. how can I work around it or fix it? Preferably without installing more software packages. ___ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs

Re: Is this taginfo problem a permissions thing?
You're correct about my syntax, I fixed that once I got the script to be called at all. I most likely just plain confused something, because I started from scratch on a different machine, it worked, then I went back to the original machine, started from scratch, and it worked.

What's the scoop with that? You did commit taginfo after modifying it, didn't you? When you did, you should have gotten a message from CVS saying that it was "Rebuilding administrative file database"; it sounds like that didn't happen. If not, it's because you managed to confuse CVS and it didn't know you were modifying files in CVSROOT -- what's in your working directory's CVS/Root file? To work around the problem, you can force a database rebuild by doing "cvs init". -Larry Jones When you're SERIOUS about having fun, it's not much fun at all! -- Calvin *** PLEASE NOTE *** This message, along with any attachments, may be confidential or legally privileged.

newbie cvs question for windows
I am using Windows 2000 to host cvs as a server. I am also using WinCVS as the client. Both are working and I can check things in and out. Currently, I set the server to run with the pserver protocol and the pserver impersonation. (1) I understand that pserver is a protocol that transmits the username/password/data in the clear, but what exactly is pserver impersonation? (2) I do not have ntserver or ntserver impersonation checked. If I read the information correctly (and it's very brief), ntserver protocol only works with NT/2000 client machines, so that if I use this protocol on the server, Linux/Unix machines won't be able to access the cvs server. Is this correct? I also was not clear on whether ntserver encrypts username/password/transmission of data. (3) When I use pserver, I need to type in a username and password. Just for fun, I switched pserver off, and turned on ntserver. On the command line of the server itself, I tried to login but could not (because that's for pserver), so I did a checkout without entering username/password. (a) How is it authenticating me? (b) If I wanted to use the command line from another machine to connect, what would be the syntax? That is, would I have to change the CVSROOT variable on the other machine, and if so, to what? (c) Assuming that the CVSROOT on the other machine does not contain a username/password, again, how is it authenticating me? Is it looking to see if I am a Windows user of the server machine? WINCVS: (1) In admin, preferences, what does the use version box represent? There are two options: standard or nt server. Is nt server mean that the cvs server is using the ntserver protocol? I wasn't sure because my cvs server was only using pserver and impersonation, and I was still able to do a log of a file while my wincvs client was set to using ntserver. What is the best way to encrypt username/password/data while using the cvs server on Windows and using WinCVS as a client? Sorry for all the questions. Thanks in advance. ___ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs

Re: problem when using shell script to checkout huge binary files (>70MB)
It probably *is* a java problem. The java run time process starts up with a given amount of heap space. Try adding a -Xmx128m to the java command line to see if that makes a difference. java -X will give you all of those non-standard options. ___ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
cvs pserver login problem
hi! i am reposting this since i forgot to fill in the subject field last time, sorry! keep hoping someone can give me a hint on this: i am experiencing a problem with setting up cvs pserver. i followed the instruction in the manual and configured xinetd so that it starts cvs pserver on port 2401 successfully ( i tested with telnet). but when i am trying to connect, syslog says: "www xinetd[26206]: START: cvspserver pid=26228 from=$IP... www xinetd[26228]: FAIL: cvspserver address from=$IP" and on client side i only get "cvs [login aborted]: reading from server: Connection reset by peer", i checked everything mentioned in the manual and couldnt find the error... here is my login command: lectrix@symbion lectrix $ cvs -d :pserver:www.symbion.at:2401/home login Logging in to :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:2401/home CVS password: cvs [login aborted]: reading from server: Connection reset by peer and CVSROOT ist lectrix@symbion lectrix $ echo $CVSROOT /home i heard of some reverse lookup problems, but i can do reverse lookup on the system by simply doing "host IP", that should be it?! can somebody help please? thanx. stefan. ___ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
