I want to compile cvs to allow root commits. Last time I checked there was a compile flag for that. If not it can be done by editing a certain file in the src.
I'm aware of the reason why root commit is not ordinarily allowed but none of it applies to me since I use cvs strictly as single user. I keep importing convig files under cvs for the history of revisions etc. I've already emerged cvs so it was compiled with default settings and won't allow root commit. How do I go about backing that out and recompiling with custom flags? I guess emerge -v unmerge cvs for the first but what about the second? And if I wnated to edit src files by hand...how would I accomplish that and still emerge the package -- [email protected] mailing list
