I'm only a light user of cvs, and use it to keep track of my config files on home machines, as well as my home projects.
One thing that seems convienient to me is to have basic system config files like /etc/hosts /etc/syslog.conf and quite a few more in cvs and only symlinks in the fs pointing to them. However some of the basic config files will not work unless owned by root. How can I conveniently work around the issue of root not being allowed to commit in cvs repository? With any files owned by root inside the repository then no one else can run `cvs commit'. At least not if those files are involved. The easiest way seems like it would be forcing cvs to allow root commits. But the one time I tried compiling for that, it never really worked. _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
