Re: What is CVSNT?

[Arthur Barrett]

Re: cvs clientAlastair,

CVSNT is a modern, feature rich implementation of CVS server and client.  It
is licensed under the GPL (free) and is currently available for Windows,
Linux, Unix, Mac OS X.

Most windows GUI's use CVSNT to perform the "work".  CVSNT is not a DLL but
an EXE (in windows speak).

For several years CVSNT was supplied as a shared library - I am not sure why
that was ceased, I vaguely remember some technical reasons - the CVSNT
newsgroup would be the best place to ask:

news://news.cvsnt.org/support.cvsnt
Or
http://www.cvsnt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cvsnt

Can someone just give me a very brief description of CVSNT? From the name it
sounds like a Windows NT CVS client, yet if so why does it compile on Linux,
etc. etc.?

Is it an executable that TortoiseCVS runs with a system call, or a library?

Since it is open source, could I pinch the code to use in libCVS (C version)
and what would the licensing issues be?

TortoiseCVS uses CVSNT to communicate to the server.  To get the most from
both clients I suggest you make sure you are using CVSNT on Linux, Windows
and also the server.

CVSNT is open source (free), and available for download for Linux, Windows,
Solaris, HPUX, Mac OS X here:
