I'd say sure, if it's just one post (text not HTML).

RE: How to share files between CVS projects?

[Matt Doar]

Search for modules and ampersand modules to combine different
directories into one "project", or keep the changes to one set of files
on a branch.

RE: Possible Spam: Re: CVS and SSH V2

[Matt Doar]

Got it: no colon allowed after a port number, and the colon between
hostname and the repository path is optional. Exactly what the manual
says.

RE: Possible Spam: Re: CVS and SSH V2

[Matt Doar]

Derek,

>From the CVS manual, I see CVSROOT is indeed specified as:

[:method:][[user][:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:[port]]/path/to/repository

as you say, without the colon between the hostname and the repository
path. However, SmartCVS does add a colon when putting the various fields
together to create a CVSROOT.

The relevant changes in ChangeLog around 2000/10/17 and parse_cvsroot()
in src/root.c in 1.12.9 suggest that the extra colon is still allowed.
Is it in fact deprecated?

I believe you have to use:

:ext:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:22:/appl/cvs/ole

as the CVSROOT format (note extra colon and forward slashes). If you are
using the professional version of SmartCVS, it will generate the ssh
keys for you, which can be convenient.

RE: cvs verifying log message format per branch

[Matt Doar]

I've attached a Perl script that I wrote to require bug ids in commit
messages on a per-branch basis. Its core is derived from cvs_acls, and
it should be installed in a similar way. No guarantees, and you should
have someone who knows Perl better than I do read it and check it very
carefully before using it.

Server version: cvs 1.12.9

RE: verifymsg and branches

[Matt Doar]

Thanks, I see we are after similar things. I followed Mark Baushke's
suggestion and wrote a script which parses client-side CVS/Entries files
(a la cvs_acls) to find out which branches are being affected by the
current commit, and then record this information in /tmp for the
verifymsg invocation of the same script to use. 

The only remaining problem is that you don't know when it's safe to
delete the stored information, since you don't know when verifymsg is
calling the script for the last time. Currently, I'm just cleaning up
the files once a night. I see that activitymail records committed
filenames to work out when it is being called for the final time, but
that's overkill here.

verifymsg and branches

[Matt Doar]

I understand how verifymsg can be used to check the text in a commit
message. The problems is that I'd like to have different checks for
different branches, and there is no "branch name" variable that I can
see to pass into a script called from verifymsg. 

So I went to see how scripts such as cvs_acls and activitymail get their
branch information. cvs_acls seems to parse each directory's CVS/Entries
file on the client, and activitymail seems to get it from the stdin for
commitinfo. But I can't pass the %l variable (the name of the file
containing the commit message) to anything but verifymsg and editinfo,
and I can't pass the same stdin to verifymsg.

Any suggestions? 

~Matt

p.s. I suppose a two step process of checking the message and recording
the results for all possible branches somewhere, and then modifying
cvs_acls to check for an acceptable message once the branch is known
might work. Bit hokey though.

Environment: cvs server 1.12.9, older clients and SmartCVS 4.0

Yes, there is. The basic way is to use cvs log to find the version of
the file (foo) before the erroneous commit (1.n), then check it out over
the local copy with:

cvs update -p -r 1.n foo > foo

and then cvs diff and commit as usual. There is a more elegant way of
doing it with update -j too. The difficulty comes when the commit was
over dozens of files. Then you need to find the version number for each
file that was affected. I do this using cvs2cl.pl to generate a
changelog and then munge the output into rollback scripts that any user
can run. The changelog will tell you which files all changed together,
and the commit comment should identify the change.

ViewCVS seems to be more commonly used nowadays. It was a rewrite of CVSWeb but

It's not the only choice. FishEye has web-based view and more of your project

RE: 'No such file or directoryctory' [sic] error

[Matt Doar]

IIRC, you can fix the error message by changing the default line ending
when you install/update cygwin. The actual cause of the error may well
be a permissions issue on the directory that is named. Take a look at
the repository for directories added without propagating their parent's
permission, and so not being group writeable.

RE: enabling log.pl

[Matt Doar]

I recommend using activitymail from https://activitymail.cvshome.org/
instead of log.pl, since it has lots more options. I had to tweak it a
small amount for cvs 1.12.9 if you're that current.

Our local configuration is:

In commitinfo:
# Accumulate changes on a per-change basis for commit email
ALL /home/cvs/CVSROOT/activitymail -l %r/%p %s

In loginfo:
# By default, send all notifications to the cvscommitlog alias
DEFAULT /home/cvs/CVSROOT/activitymail -Q -c -f %1{sVv} -m "CVS Commit
by ${USER} in" -p -V -H -w http://eng.example.com/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/
-u [EMAIL PROTECTED] -r [EMAIL PROTECTED] -t
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Works very nicely for us.

RE: Server Crash...

You might try installing cygwin with Unix-style line endings and then
run a CVS server from there. CVSNT may be do this? Alternatively, the
opposite of the dos2unix utility may be available for Windows.

RE: Sharing Common Files

[Matt Doar]

Perhaps this is belabouring the obvious, but soft links within
repositories are not versioned, so when you want to change where the
link points to in a few months from now, you won't be able to build the
older versions of your product. 

So regardless of whether you are linking to files or directories, server
side soft links are not a good idea. A client side script to recreate
them can be versioned. Modules are not versioned either, though I think
there was a patch to do this a few months ago, but you can define new
modules and still preserve the older ones.

RE: Sharing Common Files

[Matt Doar]

 
Have you looked at the modules file in CVSROOT? 

If you have a top-level directory "main_module" and when people check
out main_module you want them to also get the directory bar from foo1
(but placed in main_module/src/bar1) and the directory bar from foo2
(but placed in main_module/src/bar2), then the following lines create
aliases for the two "extra" directories, also renaming these extra
directories so they fit in the main_module subdirectory "src".

alias1 -d src/bar1foo1/bar
alias2  -d src/bar2 foo2/bar
mymodulemain_module &alias1 &alias2

Works for me with recent versions of CVS. Hope this helps.

RE: Branch tag broke my CVS - how can I repair it?

[Matt Doar]

You can also use the UserAdminOptions in CVSROOT/config on the server to
restrict who can use cvs admin and the damage that they can do with it.
I'm not sure which version this appeared in, but it's very useful for
avoiding this sort of edgy use of CVS.

We had exactly the same thing happen a few months ago.

RE: directory structure only update

[Matt Doar]

Changing the directory structure will be difficult using CVS. I would
keep a simple text file in CVS, containing a list of the directory names

foo
foo/a
foo/b
foo/c
foo/c/bar

and then run a script to regenerate the directory structure using this
file as input.

RE: Multisite CVS, Continous Availability and other goodies ...

[Matt Doar]

This is a useful-looking product. Reading the website, I have two
questions:

1) It would appear that this doesn't work with ssh yet. Is that correct?
The white paper does say that CVS_RSH is supported, but it's not clear.

2) If I commit changes in one directory in one repository, and a
colleague is using another repository, and the changes are being
propagated by CVS Replicator, then how do I know when can I tell my
colleague that they should update? 

This is assuming that (as far as a user can tell) the network and
servers are operating as normal. I know about CVS commits only being
atomic per directory.

Why would one not use smrsh? I know a number of places that use smrsh
for securing cvs, so I'm interested to know if there are any advantages
to rolling your own solution. Google didn't show anything obvious, this
may be rather off-topic.

RE: Is there any tool that can compare relevant java code in two branches ?

[Matt Doar]

 If you are interested in seeing the changes in APIs between two
versions of a Java application, then JDiff (http://www.jdiff.org) may be
helpful. It doesn't show what changed inside the methods, just the APIs.

RE: ACL status

[Matt Doar]

Take a look at the cvs_acls script in the conrtib subdirectory in the
CVS source from cvshome.org. It's pretty easy to use and restricts
access by user, directory and branch.

RE: Newbie Questions

[Matt Doar]

For CVS clients at work, I personally recommend SmartCVS
http://www.smartcvs.com/ over the other CVS clients such as Tortoise and
WinCVS. Multiplatform, easier to support and coherently designed.
Tortoise does integrate better with the Windows file system browser
though.

We use client/server. I believe that the local file is formatted and

it was reindented.
