You mean that it is Martin who do the 'cvs update' and we only have to do 'git update' ( or whatever the command is ) ? > Pushing to CVS, I use 'git diff' to generate a diff and email it to a > willing victim :) If Curt (or someone else) was willing to accept it, > I'd happily use 'git-format-patches' to generate mail-friendly patches > and fill up his Inbox - that's how the kernel developers work it. > > When my patches are applied to CVS, Martin's mirror updates and I pull > - so I know when my changes are 'in', because git-diff returns > 'nothing'. What if I have write access to the CVS repository ? Do I have to maintain a seperate CVS workspace and apply my own patch in that workspace before CVS commiting ? In that case I don't really see a great benefit ? -Fred -- Frédéric Bouvier http://my.fotolia.com/frfoto/ Photo gallery - album photo http://fgsd.sourceforge.net/ FlightGear Scenery Designer ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/flightgear-devel
