If you mean that you want to stop a developer from taking an old copy of a file
and checking
it in over the top of the current version of the file, there is a set of scripts
in contrib directory that
will facilitate this.  They will require you to have $Id$ markers at the top of
every file though, and
it would still be possible for developers to fool the scripts, just not easy.

 Subject: Question on disabling automatic merges              
                                                              




                                            Federal Record Status Not Determined



Hi Folks,

Is there anyway to disable the automatic merge on checkin under CVS?
I.e. to force that if a developer tries to checkin a file from a working
copy that is outdated - they get an error message?

I can see that if you admin files with the -m option, it will be disabled,
but this requires some overhead.  I was just wondering if I was missing an
easier configuration option.

Thanks much,
Teala
