You can't.  Since CVS is designed to support widely distributed
developers, it always works in UTC internally.  Due to complications of
the client/server protocol, most commands make no attempt to convert to
the local timezone on output (and the few that do get it wrong in many
cases), although input times are considered to be local by default.

How to set the CVS time zone?

Title: How to set the CVS time zone?





Hi there,


CVS server version:1.11.2 on HP-UX 11i
CVS client: Win CVS 1.3.8.1 on Win2K


The server and client's time zone are both EAT. But when I use WIN CVS, the time always don't match my local time.
The CVS default time zone setting is UT, How can I change it?


Best Regards!
