I began doing this but I have other personnal issues to deal with atm. (it doesn't apply to CVS 1.12, it's quite an old patch for v1.11; the doc patch applies well though) > I would be as happy about --allow-root-file, though I > don't believe I've seen that patch yet. That's another patch for CVS 1.10, from Loïc Dachary, not documented/accompagned with tests. I'll attach here so there's a way to get it (previous location is broken). > The CVS feature release also has proper portable > glob functionality that might make glob style > --allow-root specs easy to implement. > Is there a support tracker item for this issue? No, though we can create a task item here. Vincent Caron also sent me a patch they use at Gna! for automatically supporting subdirectories of the specified allow-root - however it's not documented/accompagned with tests, not strictly backward compatible, and I don't think it's good to allow a CVSROOT at any sublevel of the specified allow-root's. > RMS pinged me privately yesterday about the > GPG-signatures. You may see something in a month or two. > Is there a support tracker item for this issue? That's probably because I pinged him about it 2 days ago :) Can you tell me more about it?

The structure is at: http://cvs.gna.org/cvsweb/savane/db/mysql/?cvsroot=savane patch/support/task/bugs are built on the same schema. > I could probably rough-out a patch in a few minutes. That would be good.
