Re: [Fwd: Meta-issue: recent spam surge]

2001-09-14 Thread J. Cone

What's it actually going to do?  Junk the messages or put them aside for a
person to look at?

If it's going to junk them, then any significant risk of junking a
legitimate message has got to be a worry.

 Anyone have any objections to this spam filter being applied to the

 Aside from the (no subject) filter which would filter the cvsbug
 generated emails on bug-cvs, of course.

Re: Running editor while `cvs commit' not on terminal

2001-06-04 Thread J. Cone

There was a conversation sometime about changing the default behaviour to
something other than 'continue'.  That would be an improvement in this
situation.

The '' symbol tells the users shell to do something with the

 I've seen several times report on the following misfeature: 
 
 sometimes one inadvertantly runs

 After that things depend upon user's editor.  
 
 In one case (vi not checking if on terminal) the user had to blindly
 type ESC:q! and things seemed to be ok.
 
 
 I checked that with VIM and got the following:
 
 === errors ===
 cvs commit: Examining .
 ex/vi: Vi's standard input and output must be a terminal
 cvs commit: warning: editor session failed
 === /errors ===
 
 === stdout ===
 Log message unchanged or not specified
 a)bort, c)ontinue, e)dit, !)reuse this message unchanged for remaining dirs
 Action: (continue) Checking in hello.c;
 /repos//testing/hello.c,v  --  hello.c
 new revision: 1.3; previous revision: 1.2
 done
 === /stdout ===
 
 
 I think that it is rare but very annoying case that should be fixed.

If they've migrated from sccs, this will have been done for them :-)
