Hi I am researching on creating symbolic links in cvs and having searched the cvs-info archives,found 2 solutions suggested. Method 1:Have 2 files in cvs.1 file will have the list of files and the sym link name.The 2nd file is a script that will create the links. My question is how can I run this script at check out time?Is there any option for this?Will this method work without any problems?
Method 2:Create your modules entry to run a script during checkout to create the links.The drawback is that the modules database is not versioned, so errors will creep in if you try to re-create an old version. Hopefully the rename database will address these issues, and provide a way to create objects in checked-out directories that are not regular files. In this,again there is the mention of "run a script during checkout to create the links." How? And what does the modules database mean?The modules file is under version control,right?What does rename database mean?I didn't find these terms anywhere. Can someone explain what this 2nd method of dealing with sym links is about and point out any disadvantages? Thanks very much in advance, Paddy Thomas __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Send FREE Valentine eCards with Yahoo!
