Hi Todd,

In Windows scripting, you could make a cvs.bat which set the timezone
specifically for that application, without altering the environment of other
programs or batch scripts:

setlocal
set TZ=myUTCzone
cvs %*
endlocal

What you were suggesting with the CVS_TZ is something you could include in
this wrapper script, if necessary. You could set TZ to CVS_TZ if it existed
for the scope of the cvs application only.

I presume you're running on Linux/Unix, so I'm not sure what the equivalent
operations would be in that environment.

HTH,

Matthew Herrmann

darn, I was hoping I could have everything else work with the local $TZ and
cvs would use something like $CVS_TZ and only fallback to $TZ if $CVS_TZ was
not set.

Thanks.
