LockDir option in CVSROOT/config

Hi, We're using CVS on both Windows and Linux, using the :local: access method. Our repository is located on AFS, from Linux it's accessible as /afs/..., and from Windows the repository is accessible using some drive letter that is mapped to the root of AFS. I now want to use the LockDir option

Notification under WinNT with filename

Hallo, we are using CVS (1.10) in local mode under WinNT4.0 and we want to use notification. In notify I insert: net send %s Danger! Parallel Version! It works. Is it possible to send the name of the file which is edited? I use the free cvsbook and I did not find something about this

Re: problems merging form an empty branch, how do we avoid a ROLLBACK?

For your #6: Personally I only allow branch merges to occur between parent and child branches, not siblings or other. In your case, branch FIX would have been merged to the head and closed (no more work on it) before branch FIX_5_1 was made. In any case, you left out how you did the merge.

Delete file / undelete, problems

I deleted a file from my CVS repository, then had to undelete it. After I undeleted it, I had some trouble with the CVS tools, in that update and export ignored the file (wouldn't copy it to the workspace). I eventually solved this problem by making changes to the file and committing them.

Organizing 2 project which share code

What could go wrong with this scenario?

Hi, I have a repository with let's say 5 projects (5 toplevel directories below CVSROOT) For each project a unix group exists and users which are in this group are the only users allowed in each project. From time to time (actually after each new file and possibly after each commit) I would

Also note that the given chmod command will change archive file permissions as well. The command should at most be find /cvsroot/project -type d | chmod 770. Also, if one is using file system ACLs, chmod g+s may not be enough if the user isn't in the directory's group. One would really have

File ownership on server

When files are checked in, imported, or added to the repository on UNIX, the new files are owned by the user who checked them in. I'd rather capture the tranaction detail and have the files owned by a common owner, like cvs. Is there a way of accomplishing this or am I missing the point somehow?
