Here's a simple-minded question.
I've finally got CVS sort of functional, and I'm running a
"pserver" setup -- cvs on a Linux file server, and the
client is a local Linux "workstation".
I've discovered that when I cd into a working directory,
after logging-in to cvs, that cvs doesn't like me to do
things unless the name in CVS/Root is me. This makes sense,
but since there's several of us that telnet into the
"workstation" and modify files, each one needs to edit the
file CVS/Root to match themselves. (I haven't figured out a
good way to simply let each user have his/her own working
directory -- there's one working directory on the
workstation that we all share, because of the way all the
scripts are set up... The workstation is really an embedded
system with custom hardware on it that we're constantly
testing.)
So, is there a simple way to tell CVS that a new guy is now
in the working directory and messing with the files, other
than manually editing the CVS/Root file? If I do this, is
there more I need to be doing too?
(I have a sense that I know enough to be really dangerous
now, but not enough to be very useful.)
Thanks,
Stuart
