Would somebody point me to an URL that describes the best way to use
CVS on one machine, locally, to manage configuration files under
Linux? I have set this before, but do not recall what I did. It
seems like there was something special I needed to do in order for
root to be a CVS user. I also want to make sure I do not open any big
security holes, i.e. making files that should only be read by root be
read by everybody.
Example:
My own configuration files normally in /home/mmynsted. I think I had
to create a directory called /home/mmynsted/etc. That directory was a
checked out copy of my configuration files. They were then symlinked
back to /home/mmynsted, so they would work as the applications
expected, e.g. my .emacs and other emacs init files.
Goal:
Allow root to manage configuration files, and allow me to manage my
own configuration files with CVS.
