I like to use a remote machine to do cvs check-ins because I have management control on it and so I have installed better tools (compilers, editors, etc). But when I check in to our cvs server, because I'm going through ssh remotely this is typical of what goes in the commitlog:
project/demo/src frontside.cc Mon Jul 23 10:36:40 EDT 2007 Update of /repo/projectcvs/main/project/demo/src In directory cvshost.domain.org:/tmp/cvs-serv6345/src Basically the negative side of doing remote cvs checkins is that commitlog file tracking who did what checkin is getting sanitized by that ambiguous "cvs-serv####" string When I check-in locally I can tell it was me because my sandbox is under my home directory so my home directory name is embedded in the "In directory" path. Is there some way to get remote entries in the log to embedded the ssh username? Maybe it could look like: project/demo/src frontside.cc Mon Jul 23 10:36:40 EDT 2007 Update of /repo/projectcvs/main/project/demo/src In directory cvshost.domain.edu:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp/cvs-serv1113/... or instead of that number #### can cvs use append the username to that: /tmp/cvs-serv1113_user ?? This is on cvs 1.9 as the cvs server and cvs 1.11.22 as the remote client. Mark
