Has anyone out there used to cvs to version control system files? For instance, files in /etc.
I'm working with 2 system admins who want to do this. We were going to make the 'live' files a sandbox that they would share. I was hoping to have them edit files by logging in to their regular accounts, su to root, edit a file, exit su, cvs commit filename. The problem is the permissions involved. They each have a umask of 022 on regular accounts. So a 'cvs add dirName' creates a directory in the repository without group write. No problem, we'll set this one by hand. The CVS/Entries file however is left as owned by the last user to commit and without a group write. This is a problem for the next admin to commit. Is there a way around this. Setting the umask in the admins regular accounts to 002 seems like a poor option. Just getting started on this problem. Any advice is appreciated. -------------------------------------- Protect yourself from spam, use http://sneakemail.com _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
