Hi
I use CVS for all my source code development and document creation. My
standard workstation is a Laptop which I connect to LANs and WANs. My
repository is served via pserver. One feature I would really love is
something like
cvs chroot
which I could run on my laptop to modify all the CVS/Root files,
depending on which network I am on.
That is my CVS/Root looks like
:pserver:address@hidden:/home/user/repository
and after
cvs chroot :pserver:address@hidden:/home/user/repository
the CVS/Root would look like
:pserver:address@hidden:/home/user/repository
and ALL the subsequent CVS commands route through correctly to my host.
Currently, I manually go through all the CVS directories, changing the
file by hand. I have a small script to do it, but it would be good to
have it as part of CVS.
The main reason for doing it this way rather than committing, deleting
and checking out again is that some files are massive. Downloading them
over a modem via my ISP would take too long. I down load the files from
my local LAN and then hit the road and continue working/checking in
files etc.
Thanks
Stu.
