RE: Hard Links
Ok, I will explain: 1) I have 2 directories inside CVSROOT with different names A and B. 2) I have a1,a2 files in A directory 3) I have b1,b2 files in B directory 4) I want that if i modify file a1, b1 should be modified automatically and vice versa 5) If i will modify a2, b2 would be modified automatically and vice versa I don't want to modify the module defination to checkout coomon file from one common location for both these projects As file names a1,b1 are different and same is the case for a2,be but files are exactly copies of each other I can attain this functionality by doing soft links in Linux and can modify the files in wincvs to get my results but not through hard links One More Question: As mentioned by you linking files, you have defeated CVS's locking system and you're asking for a corrupted repository. Soft linking directories isn't dangerous Could you please suggest me more on this Regrads, Amit Sharma -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Saturday, January 04, 2003 12:23 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Hard Links Amit Sharma writes: > > I have created Soft Links in the Repository and is working fine for me from > last ten months but now there are few requirements for hard links for which > i was getting the problem I have found on the website http://www.cvshome.org > that there are few problems with the hard links's preservepermisions which > causes repository corruption Is it the same you are talking about, and > should i continue with the soft links. Are you soft linking files or directories? If you're linking files, you have defeated CVS's locking system and you're asking for a corrupted repository. Soft linking directories isn't dangerous, but it's almost always better to use CVS's modules file instead. The PreservePermissions code (which is so buggy as to be unusable) was intended to allow you to store links in the repository as normal RCS files, not to allowing linking repository files together. Perhaps if you explain in detail exactly what it is that you're trying to accomplish, someone will have a suggestion of how best to do it. -Larry Jones What better way to spend one's freedom than eating chocolate cereal and watching cartoons! -- Calvin ___ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
RE: Hard Links
I have created Soft Links in the Repository and is working fine for me from last ten months but now there are few requirements for hard links for which i was getting the problem I have found on the website http://www.cvshome.org that there are few problems with the hard links's preservepermisions which causes repository corruption Is it the same you are talking about, and should i continue with the soft links.

If you're talking about links in the repository, *DON'T DO IT* -- it completely subverts CVS's locking protocol and may well corrupt your repository. If you're talking about links in the working directory, you'll just have to modify your build process (e.g., a Makefile) to rebuild the links as needed. -Larry Jones The surgeon general should issue a warning about playing with girls. -- Calvin ___ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
RE: (newbie) WinCVS also a server?
Correct, You can get more information from here as well. http://cvsbook.red-bean.com/cvsbook.html#Getting_And_Installing_CVS_Under_Wi ndows Regards, Amit -Original Message- From: Mazza, Glen R., ,CPMS [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, January 02, 2003 5:56 PM To: 'Amit Sharma'; '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: (newbie) WinCVS also a server? But WinCVS (http://www.wincvs.org) is *not* the "Windows distribution of CVS" (from http://www.cvshome.org/), correct? WinCVS is apparently just a third-party client. I think the limited functionality you mention is that of the Windows CVS server distribution from the latter link above.

Hi, The Windows and Macintosh distributions of CVS are generally limited in functionality. They can all act as clients, meaning that they can contact a repository server to obtain a working copy, commit, update, and so on. But they can't serve repositories themselves. If you set it up right, the Windows port can use a local-disk repository, but it still can't serve projects from that repository to other machines. In general, if you want to have a network-accessible CVS repository, you must run the CVS server on a Unix box. regards, Amit Sharma -Original Message- From: Mazza, Glen R., ,CPMS [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, January 02, 2003 4:28 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: (newbie) WinCVS also a server?

Hard Links
Hi All, I want to implement hard links in CVS. My Server is in SUSE Linux Enterprise Edition 7.0 and want to create har d links for few of the files in the Same file system. Although I am able to do the same with the Soft Links but in case of hard links Whenever I modify the file and Commit the file through WinCVS Inode of the file changes and hard link is getting removed, Please suggest if anybody has faced the same problem Thanks in Advance, Regards, Amit. ___ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
