Hi Todd and Lawrence, Thanx a lot for ur suggestions on giving folder level in cvs. It worked perfectly well and Iam managing my repositories pretty well. Thanx again .... Now my concerns are whether I have a previlage to lock the tags that are created. As I have worked more with perforce, I have a doubt whether I can do the same with cvs. When a user creates a tag, is there any means by which other users cannot update the tag.
Thanx in advance :) Sandhya.............. > Sandhya wrote: > > > > Hi all, > > > > Joining new to the team of mails... > > Have started to be the admin of cvs for for the past 1 month.
