CVS update and FTP

2005-03-18 Thread Philipp Ringli
Hello all,
I tried using CVSviaFTP, but it didn't work out and it isn't maintained 
anymore.

Does anyone know of any script that either
1) outputs a ftp command file for all files that changed
2) uploads the changed files right away to a ftp server
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Phil

"cvs -n up" request to remove '?' entries

2005-03-18 Thread Paul vL
Hello all,

I'm a happy cvs user for many years. One of the more annoying things however is 
the behaviour of
cvs -n up for large working directories; I use a global -q option to trim down 
output, but
still get an enormous list (200+) of '?' before I get my one or two 'M' entries.
Using -Q will make things worse: now ONLY the '?' lines appear, and the 'M' 
entries DISAPPEAR!

I would really like an option to just have the line carrying information about 
updates and locally
modified files, i.e. an option to remove all the '?' entries.

(btw on Windows my grep behaves quite awkward regarding using '?', therefore 
that is currently not an option.)

Regards,
Paul

Suppressing '?' entries is far too dangerous - you could easily forget to
add a new file to the repository.

Instead, you need to clean up your act. Use the .cvsignore feature to ignore
files you don't need to add to the repository (such as intermediate files)
and delete any unneeded, temporary files. It's far better to run lean and
mean, than to try to ignore the fat.

Sure it is. Just get a decent grep - I use Cygwin, and have c:\cygwin\bin as
part of my standard path. I get the best of both worlds - the power and
flexibility of UNIX-like tools, and the native behaviour of Windows (OK,
maybe "best" isn't the right word in that context :=)

Have you considered adding a .cvsignore file to explicitly ignore the
extra stuff?

Re: cvs import problem

2005-03-18 Thread C.G.Senthilkumar.
Hi,
I'm seem to have tracked down the problem.
But I don't understand why this is happening
and what is the solution.
This is the output for id command when I'm
logged in locally to machine_A. The user is
'cheetanc'.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] cheetanc]$ id
uid=500(cheetanc) gid=500(cheetanc) groups=500(cheetanc)

This is the output for id command when I
ssh from machine_B to machine_A.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] cheetanc]$ id
uid=500(cheetanc) gid=500(cheetanc) groups=500(cheetanc),504(cvs)
^
You can see that the user cheetanc is part
of the group cvs in the second case when
not in the first case, (i.e) when logged in
locally. Here are the corresponding entries
in /etc/group.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] cheetanc]$ cat /etc/group | grep cheetanc
cheetanc:x:500:
cvs:x:504:cheetanc
Quite weird. What is happening?
Any help will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Thanks,
Senthil.

That makes it sound like the user is a member of the cvs group when
logged in with ssh but not when logged in locally.  You might want to
compare the results of running the ``id'' command both locally and via
ssh.

Re: cvs import problem

2005-03-18 Thread C.G.Senthilkumar.
Hi,
I found the solution.
The user is not considered a part of a new group until he logs out
and logs in again, which I didn't do. I just added the user to the
cvs group in the local machine and tried to import projects. I was
not able to import. Whereas if I tried it from remote machines, I
succeeded because, I was logging in each time I tried to import.
Thanks for pointing out the 'id' command.
Cheers,
Senthil.
