I want to have CVS notify me when someone else edits a file I'm editing, but also to notify the other editor that I am already doing so. I can't find a way to do this, so the first question is, have I missed something?
Assuming I hadn't, I wrote a little perl script to do it for me, but now I can't manage to implement it. When I commit the notify file, CVS inserts extra text into my line, so ALL myscript $RCSfile$ %s becomes ALL myscript $RCSfile: notify,v$ %s and this generates an error as $RCSfile: doesn't exist. So my second question is, is this the right way to be doing this, and if so how do I prevent CVS from corrupting my command line? It changes all occurrences of $RCSfile$ in the file.
