Adding files on branch off a branch
Hi All, If I create a new file on a branch of a branch, it creates a 3-digit branch (ie 1.1.2), and not 5 digit ones like all the other files which were already on the first branch and were then subsequently modified. I think this is because the simple handling of newly created files just adds a deleted revision 1.1 and then resurrects it on the branch. My question is, when I then merge back onto my first-level branch, it will try to resurrect the 1.1 file from the trunk, won't it? But that revision number will already have been taken by the branch of the branch. So either it will have to give it an unrelated number, which breaks the idea that 1.1.2.4.5.6 is always a descendent of 1.1.2.4, or it will clash on the revision number of the existing branch and crash.

Repository design suggestions
I'm trying to design the repository structure for a group of projects under team development and was wondering if anyone with more experience might have some recommendations for an efficient design. The projects are extensions to a commercial application and consist largely of text files (macros, menus, c-code, etc.). To be useful, tested/debugged, the project files have to be in the directories dictated by the application. Initial I thought this wouldn't be a problem, you simply make the repository tree structure the same as that used by the application and check out a working copy on top of the directories used by the application. Of course releasing the project becomes difficult because cvs release -d is not smart enough to only delete files under cvs control, but more problematic is the issue of when you need two or more projects checked out at the same time. CVS will not allow you to check out files from two trees in the repository to the same working directory. You could put all the projects into one tree in the repository and use the module definition to check out different groups, however when you have 100+ files in a group it gets tedious to define and maintain the module definitions, and seems apt to cause many problems. The only other idea I could come up with was to have separate trees for each project in the repository and use install and uninstall scripts to create and destory links in the application directory, but the application has the annoying tendency to break links when it modifies a file making this less than ideal.

Newbie: problems adding directory to repository
I've recently started using CVS to help manage a programming project that I, and I alone, am working on, at least for now. I'm having a problem and couldn't find a solution in the docs or in the archives. My setup is that I have my CVS repository on my working server, and then a sandbox on my working server from which a build script puts things where they're supposed to go. Then on my development server, I again have a sandbox and a build script. I've been working by making changes in the sandbox on the dev sever, and when they're ready, committing them to the repository, updating the working server's sandbox, and building it out. There was a point at which I was making a lot of changes to my dev sandbox, but didn't have access to the repository so couldn't commit anything. When I got back to it, I found that I couldn't get some things to match up. The basic problem is that I had taken a specific program, and directory, called Book.pm and Book/ and then generalized it and renamed them to MyDatabase.pm and MyDatabase/ . In my dev sandbox, I have this directory called MyDatabase/ and there are a bunch of programs underneath it that used to be in Book/ . But I can't seem to get this directory onto the working server. When I go to the working sandbox and type cvs update, it doesn't create MyDirectory/ or anything underneath it; it's the same when I deleted the entire sandbox and did a cvs checkout from scratch. Yet in the development sandbox, it certainly thinks it's there-- when I type cvs add MyDatabase/ or cvs add [any of the programs under MyDatabase/] I get messages like there is a version in MyDatabase already or SearchView.pm already exists, with version number 1.3. What do I need to do to get these files out of CVS and into the sandbox on the working server? Thanks very much. Sorry if I'm missing something obvious.

Re: how to really remove the information of the file?
When you remove a file from the repository you actually mark it as dead, and it stays in the repository.. Therefore the upcount in revision numbers. Yes. CVS has no way to distinguish between two different files with the same names and the same location in the directory structure. I think the way to permanently delete a file is to to it hard and without using cvs-commands (in Unix use rm) That is if you are clear with that the file and all previous revisions will forever be gone. You also have to have access to removing files from the cvsroot. Right. If you go to the repository and delete the file there corresponding to the offending file but having ,v appended to the end, it's gone forever. This is something to be very careful of. By doing that, you break the repository for any time before the file was marked dead or removed, and you lose that file permanently. This is normally exactly what you don't want in a version control system. And what you get by this is a different revision number. This doesn't matter. You cannot map revision numbers to much of anything else successfully without putting in a lot of pointless work, and so you are almost always much better off treating the revision numbers as magic cookies. When you want to have a coherent setup of the file system that you can refer to later, use tags. That's what they're there for. Revision numbers are for CVS. Tags are for humans. -- Now building a CVS reference site at http://www.thornleyware.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs

RE: tools for deleting the expanded $Log$ comments
Thanks for your code, I have tested we the example file I am sending to you,
but it prints me the followin message: No RCS-formatted logs were found! I
don't know why because I have such logs comments.
It's because your log comments are in this form:
begin snip
//Source file: I:\\isf\\util\\DynamicInstance.java
/* CmIdentification
// Version History:
$Log: DynamicInstance.java,v $
Revision 1.5 2003/07/28 16:18:08 UF367151
Extension to the isf.util package, to be included on the kernel of SGCv10. Utility
classes.
*/
end snip
My script was written for cases where the $Log$ tag is NOT flush left, but rather has
some sort of character prefix to the left of the tag. This is a sufficiently standard
condition that RCS was designed to detect and re-insert those prefixes before every
revision comment line. That is, my script was designed to work for cases like this:
/*
* Author: $Author$
* Revision: $Revision$
* History:
* $Log$
* Revision 1.5 2003/07/28 16:18:08 UF36715
* Extension to the isf.util package, to be included
* on the kernel of SGCv10. Utility classes.
*/
or this:
// Author: $Author$
// Revision: $Revision$
// History:
// $Log$
// Revision 1.5 2003/07/28 16:18:08 UF36715
// Extension to the isf.util package, to be included
// on the kernel of SGCv10. Utility classes.
...or something along those lines.
See, there needs to be some way of telling when the $Log$ comments STOP. Given the
variety of coding conventions in use, it's impossible to come up with a standard,
failsafe way to do that.
If you want to pursue this, and if the Java source you sent was representative of your
entire body of code, then try changing the middle block of the script from this:
elsif( $State eq IN_LOG )
{
if( $Line =~ /^$Prefix/ )
{
# looks like a follow-on log line;
# do nothing, and thus delete line
}
else
{
# looks like the prefix has changed, so
# assUme we've ended the log section
print $Line;
$State = AFTER_LOG;
}
}
...to this:
elsif( $State eq IN_LOG )
{
if( $Line =~ /^\/\/+/ )
{
# looks like we hit one of those //...
# separators, so assUme we've ended the log section
print $Line;

The basic problem is that I had taken a specific program, and directory, called Book.pm and Book/ and then generalized it and renamed them to MyDatabase.pm and MyDatabase/ . In my dev sandbox, I have this directory called MyDatabase/ and there are a bunch of programs underneath it that used to be in Book/ . But I can't seem to get this directory onto the working server. When I go to the working sandbox and type cvs update, it doesn't create MyDirectory/ or anything underneath it; it's the same when I deleted the entire sandbox and did a cvs checkout from scratch. Yet in the development sandbox, it certainly thinks it's there-- when I type cvs add MyDatabase/ or cvs add [any of the programs under MyDatabase/] I get messages like there is a version in MyDatabase already or SearchView.pm already exists, with version number 1.3. What do I need to do to get these files out of CVS and into the sandbox on the working server? Thanks very much. Sorry if I'm missing something obvious.

tools for deleting the expanded $Log$ comments
Hello members, I would like to know if there is a tools (in perl for example) that delete all the $Log$ expanded comments. Sometimes it is usefull because your classes have revisions for a given project, but if you decide to eliminate from all your code the inserted log comments for a given new revision, or because your are using your class on another project.

CVS commit and breaking lock
Hi, Onthe HEAD, when a locked resource is commited, the lock is lost. If branches are made, and user puts several locks on head and branches, what is the normal behaviour of commit (on head or on branch) ? I try different case and results were not the same.

The projects are extensions to a commercial application and consist largely of text files (macros, menus, c-code, etc.). To be useful, tested/debugged, the project files have to be in the directories dictated by the application. Initial I thought this wouldn't be a problem, you simply make the repository tree structure the same as that used by the application and check out a working copy on top of the directories used by the application. Of course releasing the project becomes difficult because cvs release -d is not smart enough to only delete files under cvs control, but more problematic is the issue of when you need two or more projects checked out at the same time. CVS will not allow you to check out files from two trees in the repository to the same working directory. You could put all the projects into one tree in the repository and use the module definition to check out different groups, however when you have 100+ files in a group it gets tedious to define and maintain the module definitions, and seems apt to cause many problems. The only other idea I could come up with was to have separate trees for each project in the repository and use install and uninstall scripts to create and destory links in the application directory, but the application has the annoying tendency to break links when it modifies a file making this less than ideal. I'd appreciate any insights on possible design solutions that others have found to work. Martyn _ MSN 8 helps eliminate e-mail viruses.

You are your CVS admin. Best regards, Wu Yongwei ___ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
