Hello, I got a question on using CVS (what else?). I'm using a laptop which accesses a remote repository via ssh.
Unfortunately, depending on whether I'm "inside" the network which contains the repository, or "outside", I have to use different ssh settings. The machine name, as well as the used port change. I cannot access the repository server with the "inside" settings from outside, and vice versa. Currently, I help myself by utilizing a ~/.ssh/config file, which contains two entries, namely, CVS-local and CVS-remote, with the correct settings for each case. Depending of whether I'm "in" or "out", I rename one of both to "CVS", and only use the ssh server name "CVS" when working with CVS. This works, but is annoying. I ask myself if there is another way to perform this? I will ask this on an ssh mailing list, too, but there might be some ideas here which do not depend on ssh, but are cvs related. Ideally, there would be a solution which would work automatically. I already thought about writing a skript which renames the appropriate entry depending on my own IP address. An option I used before using ~/.ssh/config was to change CVS/Root in every directory, but this was rather annoying. Any thoughts or experiences on this? Thanks, Spiro. -- Spiro R.
