While I wouldn't called CVS slow, I would appreciate some hints on optimizing / tweaking performance. We're using version 1.11.1p1 via pserver on a Redhat Linux version 2.4.17+acl on an ext3 file system and things are starting slow down painfully for some of our larger modules. SNIP Two things that might speed it up some, 1) update to something past 1.11.1p1, they started using mmap on the files in 1.11.2 which CAN make things faster. and as an added bonus you get security fixes. 2) see if you can get a newer kernel, self compiled. a kernel optimized for the hardware you have (instead of generic 386 calls) can be a little faster thus speeding up the whole system. -- Todd Denniston Crane Division, Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC Crane) Harnessing the Power of Technology for the Warfighter ___ Info-cvs mailing list Info-cvs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
Tagging problem in CVS - weird filenames
Hi All: When I tag all the files in the CVS repository, I get the following messages in the CVS mailer log: CVS Server: DEVSERVER1 CVSROOT: /mydevdir Module: dev Date of tag: 2005-02-10 10:29:01 Tagged by: manjinder Tag type: add Tag name: s1-0-1 Affected files Revision dev Dª 1.1 À 1.1 Dª 1.1 Dª 1.3 Dª 1.1.12.3 Dª 1.45.2.2 --- When I commit any changes to any file, the cvs mailer log comes out perfectly fine. Any ideas? Your help is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Manjinder ___ Info-cvs mailing list Info-cvs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
win32 questions
I've just downloaded the win32 version of the cvs client to be used with tkcvs (under WinME) and had to do a lot of digging to resolve some basic installation problems. The problems I ran into was the strict requirement to have the environment variables HOMEDIR and HOMEPATH defined and even so the cvs client seemed very particular about the format. It seems it does not like or accept trailing slashes nor an empty string or non-existent entry for HOMEPATH. Then it refused to create the file .cvspass if it does not exist in the specified path and under WinME it is a bit tricky to create .cvspass - a file without a file name in WInME's opinions :-). Surely I can't be the only one to be using cvs in this environment? Are there any information files that I missed?

RE: win32 questions
From: Arnold Wiegert I've just downloaded the win32 version of the cvs client to be used with tkcvs (under WinME) and had to do a lot of digging to resolve some basic installation problems. I've never used Windows ME and won't speculate about it's behavior. The problems I ran into was the strict requirement to have the environment variables HOMEDIR and HOMEPATH defined and even so the cvs client seemed very particular about the format. It seems it does not like or accept trailing slashes nor an empty string or non-existent entry for HOMEPATH. Please note the HOMEDIR variable is NOT used by CVS. I presume you meant HOMEDRIVE variable. I work with Windows 2000 which defines HOMEDRIVE and HOMEPATH to point to logged in user's profile and does work since Windows 2000 constructs both variables in proper form. CVS also checks for the existence of the HOME variable and will use that value if it exists and ignores HOMEDRIVE and HOMEPATH. If Windows ME isn't constructing HOMEDRIVE and HOMEPATH as required then try defining HOME instead. Then it refused to create the file .cvspass if it does not exist in the specified path and under WinME it is a bit tricky to create .cvspass - a file without a file name in WInME's opinions :-). Surely I can't be the only one to be using cvs in this environment? In fact you just may be. CVS for Win32 doesn't gets no testing as a separate port. The bulk of testing is UNIX based and past practice has shown that if CVS works on UNIX then it generally but not always works on Windows. CVS 1.11.18 was a recent exception; no binary for Windows was released. I wouldn't be surprised to learn that all CVS developers working with the CVS Win32 port are also Windows NT/2000/2003 and NTFS users only. Based on the limited information provided so far I can't tell if your issue is a correctable configuration problem or might be a bug. I'd appreciate feedback either way. Are there any information files that I missed? I don't have an answer for this question. TIA, Arnold Conrad ___ Info-cvs mailing list Info-cvs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs

RE: win32 questions
Arnold, I'm not familiar with tkcvs but WinCVS and TortoiseCVS both include CVSNT for Windows. CVSNT is free (open source GPL just like CVS) and can be downloaded from: http://www.cvsnt.com/ As Conrad pointed out most CVS testing is done on Unix. CVSNT is tested extensively on Windows, Mac OS X, HPUX, Solaris and IBM iSeries (OS400). You should direct any questions to the free open source CVSNT newsgroup: http://www.cvsnt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cvsnt or news://news.cvsnt.org/support.cvsnt Regards, Arthur Barrett -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ] On Behalf Of Arnold Wiegert Sent: Tuesday, 15 February 2005 6:24 AM To: info-cvs@gnu.org Subject: win32 questions I've just downloaded the win32 version of the cvs client to be used with tkcvs (under WinME) and had to do a lot of digging to resolve some basic installation problems.

CVSNT is free (open source GPL just like CVS) and can be downloaded from: http://www.cvsnt.com/ Thank you for your comments, but I have given up on wincvs and cvsnt since I want to run a cvs front end with as much similarity (identical, if possible) under both linux and Winxx, which TkCvs seems to provide. My questions related to differences between the environment the two guis work in when they both try to connect to the same cvs server and more particularly to TkCVS and the differences in the cvs clients used by TkCVS vs Wincvs As Conrad pointed out most CVS testing is done on Unix.
