Version:
1.10.7
rpm: cvs-1.10.7-7
(installed from RH 6.2)
O/S: Linux
2.2.16 (RH 6.2)
When using a Win32
client to access a cvs repository on RH 6.2, I kept getting the error message
can't access "/home/russell/.cvsignore: permission denied". It turns out
that the "cvs pserver" was trying to open "$HOME/.cvsignore". That
may be a handy feature when running cvs as a client, but when running as a
pserver it is definitely bad.
I don't know if it
is relevant, but the command line used to invoke the pserver is: /usr/bin/cvs -T
/var/tmp --allow-root=/CvsRoot pserver
- cvs pserver tries to access .cvsignore on server,
