plus a couple of minor changes.. Some highlights of the new stuff that was not in the old version: - remote access support.. full checkout/commit/log/etc.. - much improved dead file support.. - speed improvements - better $CVSROOT handling - $Name$ support - support for a "cvsadmin" group to cut down rampant use of "cvs admin -o" - safer setuid/setgid support - many bugs fixed.. :-) - probably some new ones.. :-( - more that I cannot remember offhand..

$CVSid: @(#)README 1.12 94/09/25 $
|
|
|
|
This "contrib" directory is a place holder for code/scripts sent to
|
|
me by contributors around the world. This README file will be kept
|
|
up-to-date from release to release. BUT, I must point out that these
|
|
contributions are really, REALLY UNSUPPORTED. In fact, I probably
|
|
don't even know what they do. Nor do I guarantee to have tried them,
|
|
or ported them to work with this CVS distribution. If you have questions,
|
|
you might contact the author, but you should not necessarily expect
|
|
a reply. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK -- and all that stuff.

Contents of this directory:

|
README This file.
|
|
log A perl script suitable for including in your
|
|
$CVSROOT/CVSROOT/loginfo file for logging commit
|
|
changes. Includes the RCS revision of the change
|
|
as part of the log.
|
|
Contributed by Kevin Samborn <samborn@sunrise.com>.
|
|
pcl-cvs A directory that contains GNU Emacs lisp code which
|
|
implements a CVS-mode for emacs.
|
|
Contributed by Per Cederqvist <ceder@lysator.liu.se>.
|
|
commit_prep A perl script, to be combined with log_accum.pl, to
|
|
log_accum provide for a way to combine the individual log
|
|
messages of a multi-directory "commit" into a
|
|
single log message, and mail the result somewhere.
|
|
Can also do other checks for $Id and that you are
|
|
committing the correct revision of the file.
|
|
Read the comments carefully.
|
|
Contributed by David Hampton <hampton@cisco.com>.
|
|
mfpipe Another perl script for logging. Allows you to
|
|
pipe the log message to a file and/or send mail
|
|
to some alias.
|
|
Contributed by John Clyne <clyne@niwot.scd.ucar.edu>.
|
|
rcs-to-cvs Script to import sources that may have been under
|
|
RCS control already.
|
|
Contributed by Per Cederqvist <ceder@lysator.liu.se>.
|
|
cvscheck Identifies files added, changed, or removed in a
|
|
cvscheck.man checked out CVS tree; also notices unknown files.
|
|
Contributed by Lowell Skoog <fluke!lowell@uunet.uu.net>
|
|
cvshelp.man An introductory manual page written by Lowell Skoog
|
|
<fluke!lowell@uunet.uu.net>. It is most likely
|
|
out-of-date relative to CVS 1.3, but still may be
|
|
useful.
|
|
dirfns A shar file which contains some code that might
|
|
help your system support opendir/readdir/closedir,
|
|
if it does not already.
|
|
Copied from the C-News distribution.
|
|
rcslock A perl script that can be added to your commitinfo
|
|
file that tries to determine if your RCS file is
|
|
currently locked by someone else, as might be the
|
|
case for a binary file.
|
|
Contributed by John Rouillard <rouilj@cs.umb.edu>.
|
|
ccvs-rsh A Perl script which allows "rsh pipelines" to
|
|
be built in order to use Cyclic CVS from
|
|
behind some varieties of firewall.
|
|
cvs_acls A perl script that implements Access Control Lists
|
|
by using the "commitinfo" hook provided with the
|
|
"cvs commit" command.
|
|
Contributed by David G. Grubbs <dgg@ksr.com>.
|
|
descend A shell script that can be used to recursively
|
|
descend.man descend through a directory. In CVS 1.2, this was
|
|
very useful, since many of the commands were not
|
|
recursive. In CVS 1.3 (and later), however, most of
|
|
the commands are recursive. However, this may still
|
|
come in handy.

|
|
cln_hist A perl script to compress your
|
|
$CVSROOT/CVSROOT/history file, as it can grow quite
|
|
large after extended use.
|
|
Contributed by David G. Grubbs <dgg@ksr.com>
|
|
sccs2rcs A C-shell script that can convert (some) SCCS files
|
|
into RCS files, retaining the info contained in the
|
|
SCCS file (like dates, author, and log message).
|
|
Contributed by Ken Cox <kenstir@viewlogic.com>.
|
|
intro.doc A user's view of what you need to know to get
|
|
started with CVS.
|
|
Contributed by <Steven.Pemberton@cwi.nl>.
|
|
rcs2sccs A shell script to convert simple RCS files into
|
|
SCCS files, originally gleaned off the network
|
|
somewhere (originally by "kenc") and modified by
|
|
Jerry Jelinek <jerry@rmtc.Central.Sun.COM> and
|
|
Brian Berliner <berliner@sun.com> to increase
|
|
robustness and add support for one-level of branches.
|
|
rcs2log A shell script to create a ChangeLog-format file
|
|
given only a set of RCS files.
|
|
Contributed by Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>.

|
|
style ChangeLog files .
