Installing WinCVS 1.2 as a stand-alone

2002-10-08 Thread bharath katragadda

Hi friends,

I am new to WinCVS. I want if I can use this WinCVS as a stand-alone software on my 
private machine without the need of a server. I would be greatful if you people help 
me on this.


Regards,
Bharath

 Hi folks,

Light server?  There's a full-featured one that you can
get at http://www.cvsnt.org that will run on Windows 2K.
It is implemented as an NT service.  I am not a Windows expert,
but that could well mean that moving it to Windows 98 is
impractical.

If you have a Windows NT/2K/XP box, you should be able to
install CVSNT and WinCVS and go from there.
 
If you have a Windows 98 machine only, then you are probably
out of luck.

The correct word is impossible, as services are processes, which 
Win98 does not have.

Correct.

 If you have a Windows 98 machine only, then you are probably
 out of luck.

If you have a Win98 machine, and want to do single machine development...

To use WinCVS for standalone development, select create a new 
repository from the create menu.  Check your settings carefully - 
you want local mode with matching path and CVSROOT(pick a new 
directory).  Once you click OK, your new repository will be created 
and initialized.

Then, using the change location button of the browse toolbar, 
select your new repository.  Voila!  Single person development up and 
running!  Enjoy!

Thanks a lot, Mike!  That was exactly what I needed.  CVS gives me a 
reliable versioning and backup this way.  And yes, it's a single person 
development at home for our parish.

Good.  Now just remember to do regular backups and store them 
offsite, and you're professional grade.
