Re: acl for cvs try II

2003-06-30 Thread Edward Peschko
#1 is key for me - I need something where I don't need to download a new client for everyone who wants to use ACL. #2 is pretty important too - I want something centralized, one file that I can check and see at a glance who has access to what. If #1 and #2 holds for your patch, then like

hmm.. Well, it looks like my patch for acl grafted onto CVS has pretty much sunk without a trace... wrong forum? philosophical issues again? no interest? If it is the wrong forum for patches, then what is the *right* forum? If its philosophical issues again, then what are they and how can we

It is the right forum, (I actually have your message in a queue of things to look at right behind a patch by Dieter Mauer that deals with keyword substitution, but which turned up an odd problem that I have been trying to track down in that his keyword2-20k test does something odd). We are

2003-06-24 Thread Edward Peschko
ok, here's acl for cvs - try II, to see if its getting through to the list. The patch implements very simple acl at the code level, and works against cvs-1.11.5/6. Below is a bit of a writeup, followed by the patch. If people are interested in having this apply against 1.12.1, I'll work on it,

If you think only for a very few moments about this problem I'm sure you'll see that there are literally hundreds, if not thousands, of ways to manage special files using scripts and data stored in ordinary text files, the latter which can easily be stored and versioned by CVS. Sorry if

way. So far no one has disagreed. So is everyone in agreement with this basic goal? All of that can be managed by the build system. You don't need it in cvs. well, technically you don't *need* cvs either. you could do fine with rcs. In fact, programmers would probably live longer

Of course you can. This is trivial. Simply push the starting point for the libs onto @INC and then merrliy go about issuing your use statements. For example: push (@INC, /top/dir1/dir2/perlLibs/); ... which of course assumes that everybody has their cvs archives checked out in the
