pserver issue

2002-04-29 Thread Frank Gilmurray
Currently our local users use NFS to access the CVS repositories. We are also using pserver for our remote users. The CVSROOT/module file runs a script that creates some symbolic links and this works fine via NFS but not with pserver (the script is executed on the server, not the client). Does

File Locking with CVS

2002-04-29 Thread Gilroy, Michael -AES
My manager won't let me use CVS with concurrent versions of files. I need to have the file locked when I edit the file (cvs edit) so that no one else can do a 'cvs edit' until I either do a 'cvs unedit' or a 'cvs commit'. This would be similar to the way SCCS and RCS work. However, I also need s

Once again, take a look at message ID# [EMAIL PROTECTED] posted to this forum on September 16, 2001. It illustrates one way (though perhaps not the best way) to do just this. It relies on a lookup table that looks up a diff tool given a file's name. A better implementation would be to code a sy

That's what I meant (but did not say), newlines+spaces. Every tool I've seen either (a) doesn't just generate the newlines, they generate the indenting spaces too, or (b) doesn't generate any newlines or spaces at all. (Perhaps I have missed some, so YMMV.) My point was that from a web designer po
