RE: WinCVS options

[Vijay Narayanan]

Thats ok. The notification on Checkout really is not required. What I am
looking for is a way to use reserved checkouts using WinCVS wherein a
folder/module can be checked out by only one person. If somebody else tries
to checkout the same, he should be getting an error/warning stating the
same. Is that possible in WinCVS?

Thanks
Vijay

That doesn't really make sense in CVS, since checking out a module
is a trivial act.  Is it really necessary to notify all the developers
whenever anybody gets another copy of the source, or are you looking
for notification when anybody plans to change a file?
