Sun Jul 26 02:42:20 1998 Noel Cragg <noel@swish.red-bean.com> * cvs.texinfo (config): TopLevelAdmin variable. * cvsclient.texi (Requests): fix typo. 1998-07-14 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvsclient.texi (Requests): "remove" is like "add" in the sense that it is the "ci" request which does most of the work. 1998-06-23 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Excluding directories): Fix order of "!first-dir/sdir" and "first-dir" to match what CVS actually accepts. Reported by Tim McIntosh of sterling.com. 1998-06-09 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Using keywords): Rewrite to be less specific to source code in C. The old text was worse than that; it was specific to certain versions of GCC (not even current GCC's, I don't think) (reported most recently by Mitchell Perilstein; if memory serves by others before that). 1998-06-08 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Concurrency): Also mention #cvs.lock. Don't mention #cvs.tfl; it is quite old (before CVS 1.5). (Locks, Backing up, Concurrency): Add more index entries. 1998-06-03 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com> * cvs.texinfo (Tracking sources): Clarify that the vendor branch is only made the head revision when you import a new file, not any time you import a file. 1998-05-23 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (What is CVS?): info-cvs-request is now at gnu.org and is no longer handled by a human (hallelujah). 1998-05-12 Jim Meyering <meyering@ascend.com> * cvs.texinfo: Add an info dir entry. Remove trailing white space. 1998-05-05 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Wrappers): Be more explicit that -m 'COPY' has no effect on binary files. 1998-05-02 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * RCSFILES: Add more discussion of the order of the revisions. 1998-04-27 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (loginfo example): Also give example of sending mail. Use internal variable $USER rather than expecting CVS to set the environment variable $USER. Change unnecessary 'sed' invocation to 'cat' (it suffered from the same problem in terms of internal variables versus environment variables). * cvs.texinfo (Error messages): Add "conflict: removed FILE was modified by second party". 1998-04-20 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Common options): Update comment about meaning of HEAD in cvs diff. 1998-04-12 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvsclient.texi (Dates): Also mention log -d. * cvs.texinfo (Invoking CVS): No space is allowed between -r or -w and its argument, for the log command. 1998-04-11 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvsclient.texi (Dates): New section, explaining the deal with date formats. 1998-04-09 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Global options, Invoking CVS): Fix typo ("files files" -> "files"). (Invoking CVS): Make -q and -Q more concise. (Invoking CVS): Use @var for metavariables in "diff -r". 1998-03-17 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (~/.cvsrc): In example, put "checkout" rather than "co" into .cvsrc; we just finished explaining that only the former works! Thanks to Lenny Foner for reporting this. * cvs.texinfo (Copying): Remove this node. This basically restores the status quo prior to 18 Oct 1996 (before then the node existed but was empty). (before Top): Adjust copyright notice accordingly. 1998-03-12 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com> * RCSFILES: Updated description of `hardlinks' newphrases. 1998-03-07 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Tags, Sticky tags, Creating a branch, Accessing branches): Rename release-0-1 tag to rel-0-1 and likewise for release-0-1-patches and release-0-4. This fixes an overfull hbox. (diff options): Reformat table to fix underfull hboxes and such. 1998-03-07 Tim Pierce <twp@skepsis.com> * cvs.texinfo (Editing files, Special Files): Document hardlinks. Various cleanups to PreservePermissions text. * RCSFILES: Document PreservePermissions newphrases. 1998-03-04 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Special Files): Add notes about client/server CVS and hard links across directories. 1998-03-01 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Keeping a checked out copy): The magic loginfo incantation isn't too likely to work except on unix. 1998-02-23 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (user-defined logging): Double "@" literal. 1998-02-18 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (user-defined logging): Add taginfo example.

Fri Dec 26 18:30:26 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (What is CVS?): Just point to the two canonical web sites (Pascal Molli and Cyclic) concerning CVS downloads. The GNU URL was out of date and GNU only has source distributions anyway. * cvs.texinfo: Change bug-cvs address to gnu.org per email from Martin Hamilton. Tue Dec 23 18:04:09 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Sticky tags): Further cleanups. Fix thinko (s/subsequent cvs update/& commands/). Remove "vi driver.c" and commit from example (totally vestigial). Reword start of paragraph on non-branch sticky tags, so that it better alludes to branch sticky tags. When introducing sticky tags, make it clear that even people who aren't trying to use sticky tags may need to know how to avoid them. Restore comment about CVS/Tag files. (Accessing branches): Don't xref to merging here; that is a much more advanced topic and the "but see" wording didn't tell us what to see the xref about. Tue Dec 23 14:39:08 1997 Karl Fogel <kfogel@floss.red-bean.com> and Jim Kingdon * cvs.texinfo (Creating a branch): Rewritten. Introduce with `tag', then discuss `rtag' and `-r'.

(Sticky tags): Moved from "Branching and merging" to "Revisions". (Accessing branches): New node in "Branching and merging", explains how to use checkout vs update to retrieve a branch. Text and example inherited from "Sticky tags", but text mostly rewritten. (Sticky tags): Moved under "Revisions", rewritten somewhat (more rewrites to follow). Don't use "-v" in "cvs status" example. Mon Dec 22 11:46:05 1997 Karl Fogel <kfogel@floss.red-bean.com> and Jim Kingdon Cleanups related to recent separation of revisions from branching/merging: * cvs.texinfo (Revisions): Take paragraph introducing branches, rewrite it and move it to "Branching and merging". (Branching and merging): Also rewrite merging intro. (Revision numbers): Don't go into detail about branch revision numbers here, just mention that they happen and refer to new node "Branches and revisions". (Branches and revisions): New node under "Branching and merging", inherits text from "Revision numbers". (Creating a branch): Refer to "Branches and revisions" now, not "Revision numbers". (Binary why): Rewrite sentence which refers to merging, so that it isn't specific to branch merging. (Branches motivation): Fix typo (select -> elect). Add comment about what this node is accomplishing, in general. Sun Dec 21 20:57:24 1997 Karl Fogel <kfogel@floss.red-bean.com> and Jim Kingdon This is just moving text; related cleanups to follow. * cvs.texinfo: Changes to put branching and merging together, and keep it all separate from revisions: (Revisions): Renamed from "Revisions and branches". (Branching and merging): Renamed from "Merging". (Branches motivation, Creating a branch, Sticky tags, Magic branch numbers): these subnodes moved to "Branching and merging" from "Revisions". everywhere: Adjusted cross-references to cope with above. Sun Dec 21 20:36:39 1997 Karl Fogel <kfogel@floss.red-bean.com> and Jim Kingdon Note that this is just moving text, not changing it: * cvs.texinfo: divide top-level menu into sections. (Multiple developers, Builds, Tracking sources, Keyword substitution): moved to be in "CVS and the Real World" section. (Compatibility): moved to be in "References" section. Mon Dec 22 08:54:31 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvsclient.texi (Example): In comment, in citing the BNF style used in many RFCs, cite RFC2234 not RFC822 (now that the former is out).

Cleanups suggested by Stephen Gildea (CVSROOT/passwd has 2 or 3 fields; /user -> /usr; noone -> no one; in used -> in use). Add comment about making compilers happy about rcsids. Sat Oct 25 00:58:24 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * RCSFILES: rcsfile.5 is correct about {num} after next being optional.

Wed Oct 8 10:24:19 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (rtag options): Add comment about how this is confusing.

Add item about what it means if "expand" is omitted. * cvs.texinfo (Magic branch numbers): Change example branch number from 1.2.3 to 1.2.4; CVS assigns even branch numbers and I don't think vendor branches are very relevant to this example. Wed Sep 17 17:21:33 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (admin options): Add comment about "cvs admin -b" (with no argument to the -b). * RCSFILES: "next" is optional, not required.

Wed Sep 3 14:49:43 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Multiple developers): Add idea about cvs editors and reserved checkouts. Sun Aug 31 19:36:21 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Rewrite paragraph on cvs add on a filename containing '/'.

Sat Aug 16 10:19:06 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Error messages): Add note about how "could not check out foo.c" seems to also have been observed on Irix.

Fri Jul 4 15:27:43 1997 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com> * cvs.texinfo (Common options): Fix typo (avaliable for available).

Tue Jun 24 09:37:26 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Error messages): Add assertion failed. * cvsclient.texi (Connection and Authentication): Add "E" and "error" as responses in authentication protocol. The server already was in the (formerly bad) habit of sending them, and we might as well implement this in the client and document it. * cvs.texinfo (Password authentication security): Note about permissions on $CVSROOT also applies to its parent and so on up to /.

(Tracking sources): Add comment about what a "vendor" is. * cvs.texinfo (Keyword substitution): Where it refers to RCS having a certain behavior, rewrite to not pass the buck like that.

(CVS commands): Don't refer to "rlog" in describing what log does. * Makefile.in (cvsclient.dvi cvsclient.aux): Run texi2dvi rather than (poorly) emulating it ourself. Fix overfull and underfull hboxes: * cvs.texinfo (What is CVS?): Add words "the newsgroup" before "comp.sources.unix". (Credits): Put list of people in @display. (Repository files): Put /usr/local/cvsroot in @example. (Connecting via rsh): Change "anklet" to "toe" in example. (Kerberos authenticated, Password authentication client, Password authentication server): Change "brickyard" to "yard" in example. (Read-only access): Use @example and refer to files with a shorter pathname. (Server temporary directory): Use @example for pathname. (Watches Compatibility): Add phony line break. (Revision numbers): Remove revision 1.2.2.2 and tighten up the spacing for "the main trunk". (Tags, Creating a branch): Change /usr/local/cvsroot to /u/cvsroot. (Merging more than once): Tighten up spacing for "the main trunk". (Recursive behavior): Put long command in @example. (First import): Remove word "called".

(Example): Add word "file". (Example): Change line breaks in example log message. (Example): Change /home/kingdon/testing/cvsroot to /u/cvsroot. * cvs.texinfo (Credits): Don't refer to appendix A and B, they have been renumbered. Reword so that it works whether the text in question has since been rewritten or not. * cvs.texinfo (BUGS): Rewrite to reflect the many different ways that one might want to handle bugs. Move information on Signum and Cyclic from Preface to here. Remove information on known deficiencies in the manual (some of them I'm not sure were really things in need of improvement; others were too general to be useful). For the most part FIXME comments are probably better for this. Remove "Linkoping, October 1993, Per Cederqvist"--many parts of the manual are now from other people, dates, and places. (What is CVS): For the most part, just refer to BUGS concerning bug-cvs. Also tell people how to subscribe to bug-cvs. (Credits): Say that list is not comprehensive and refer to ChangeLog. Sat May 3 10:51:58 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (rcsinfo): Add comment about checkoutlist and related topics. * cvs.texinfo (Server temporary directory): New node. * cvs.texinfo (Backing up): New node. * cvs.texinfo (Repository): Be more explicit about the repository and the working directory not being subdirectories of each other. Mon Apr 28 11:12:56 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Removing files): Use "*.c" not "?.c" in example; the former should be good for both unix and DOS-like operating systems. Document -f option. Refer to Invoking CVS for a full list of options. Add a few comments. * cvs.texinfo (Invoking CVS): For checkout and update, call them "sticky options" not "sticky kopts". * cvs.texinfo (Editing files): Add additional comments on get vs. checkout. Sun Apr 27 16:17:06 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (commit): Only document the current flags (where -f is force and -F file gets the message from a log file). We had partly made this change on 9 Feb 1997, but some places got missed. * RCSFILES: Add discussion of the common concern regarding applying deltas to get to a branch head. * DIFFUTILS-2.7-BUG: New file. * cvs.texinfo (File status): Refer to "Invoking CVS", not "status", for status options.

(Invoking CVS): xref to "File status" and "Tags", not "status" and "status options". (status, status options): Removed. (update options, checkout options): xref to "Invoking CVS" not "status". * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Clarify how long-lived Sticky and Static-directory are. * cvs.texinfo: Add @finalout. * cvs.texinfo (Error messages): Add "cannot change permissions on temporary directory" message. Wed Apr 23 12:53:45 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Document "add" in much more detail. Wed Apr 23 00:38:17 1997 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com> * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Correct small typo (`a' for `as'). Tue Apr 22 14:23:32 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvsclient.texi (Protocol Notes): Expand ideas on multisite features somewhat. Add items about the network turnarounds for pserver authentication and for protocol negotiation. Mon Apr 21 08:54:48 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Working directory storage): Describe what to do with Entries.Log in more detail. * cvsclient.texi (Responses): Say "CVS 1.9 and earlier" rather than "pre version 1.10". The latter increases confusion by referring to a version which doesn't exist yet. Mon Apr 21 01:02:53 1997 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com> * cvsclient.texi (Responses): Document Rcs-diff. Indicate that Patched is now deprecated in favor of Rcs-diff. Sun Apr 20 23:42:03 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Working directory storage): Add note about format of timestamp and the "Result of merge" concept. Sat Apr 19 13:42:33 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvsclient.texi (Responses): It is OK for Copy-file to implement a rename instead of a copy. Fri Apr 18 12:05:48 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Assigning revisions): Say that -r implies -f. Thu Apr 17 16:34:14 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (From other version control systems): Add comment about CMZ and PATCHY. Wed Apr 16 12:35:25 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvsclient.texi (Responses): Add paragraph describing how Copy-file relates to Merged. (Responses): Add paragraph about how it is the server which worries about not clobbering the user's file. Tue Apr 15 00:57:31 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * RCSFILES: Add notes on keyword expansion. * cvs.texinfo (Rename by copying): Comment out seemingly erroneous text regarding the revision number that the new file starts with. Mon Apr 14 12:37:35 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Clients should try to send notifications right away. * cvsclient.texi (Requests): For Notify request, clarify a few future expansion situations. Specify the format of the time. * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Clarify that arguments to co, rdiff, and rtag are module names (and how that differs from file/directory names). * cvsclient.texi (Responses): Say that servers need to create directories one at a time. Sat Apr 12 09:32:58 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Committing your changes): Say that editor default is notepad (not vi) for Windows NT/95. Be more clear about what "cvs commit" does. Add paragraph about timestamps. (Environment variables, Global options, editinfo): Add xrefs to that node. Thu Apr 10 15:48:39 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Error messages): Add "could not patch; will refetch". Wed Apr 9 15:21:11 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Working directory storage): New node. * cvs.texinfo (Error messages): Add comment about "cvs co ." on NT.

Sun Apr 6 19:03:01 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Removing files): Add comment about undoing a "cvs remove". * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Explicitly mention the idea of deferring "Notify" requests. Tue Apr 1 07:51:38 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvsclient.texi (Responses): Add paragraph about directory creation and empty directories. * cvs.texinfo (Binary files): Add comment about binary files and merges. * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Add discussion of when to send Is-modified. * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Sending Is-modified is enough to prevent the file from being considered "lost". Sun Mar 30 00:31:47 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Add Is-modified request. Clarify order of Entry relative to Unchanged or Is-modified (might as well specify the same thing vis-a-vis Modified while we are at it). Sat Mar 29 12:32:40 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvsclient.texi: Change "newline" to "linefeed". Most of the document already reads "linefeed" and that is what is intended.

(Goals, Filenames, File transmissions, new node Strings): Add discussion of character sets and what we expect from the transport protocol we run on. * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Add paragraph about each Directory request specifying a new local-directory and repository. * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Add paragraph about renaming local-directory in Directory request. Use "local-directory" consistently instead of "working directory", for clarity. Fri Mar 28 13:59:59 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Make it clear that there is no guarantee that one will get Clear-sticky instead of another response. Also clarify that clients will tend to store the repository in a long-term way. * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Further clarify Directory example. * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Add example and further explanation of what expand-modules is for. * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Add example, hopefully making it clearer what REPOSITORY and LOCAL-DIRECTORY mean to Directory. * cvs.texinfo (Attic): New node. (rtag options): Adjust discussion of -a accordingly. (Repository files): Adjust accordingly. Thu Mar 27 09:57:05 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Error messages): Give exact wording of broken pipe error message. * cvs.texinfo (history database): Add comment about various problems with the history file. * cvs.texinfo (Common options): The ISO8601 web page we had mentioned in a comment is no more. Replace it with a new one. * cvs.texinfo (Common options): "cvs history" also outputs dates. Wed Mar 26 10:54:21 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Common options): "cvs editors" also outputs dates. * cvs.texinfo (Outside): Fix paragraph which said that revision numbers start at 1.0. First of all, it is 1.1. Second of all, it is sometimes 2.1, 3.1, etc. Third of all, the xref should be to Assigning revisions not commit options. * cvs.texinfo (Outside): Comment out sentence which incorrectly stated that "cvs add" can operate on "foo/bar.c". Tue Mar 25 22:21:29 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Error messages): New node. (Magic branch numbers): Move from Troubleshooting to Revisions and branches. The former placement never made any sense to me. (Revision numbers): Remove "Main trunk (intro)" index entry now that this node is right next to the other "main trunk" index entry. (BUGS): Very briefly mention reporting bugs in CVS. * cvs.texinfo (Compatibility): Add comment about "Nfoo" in CVS/Tag. Mon Mar 24 13:50:24 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Creating a branch): Add comment about -r in branch example. * cvsclient.texi (Responses): Discuss meaning of tagspec and future expansion in Set-sticky. The behavior described is the one which CVS has always implemented. Fri Mar 21 14:19:05 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Revise meaning of "Case" per change to CVS. Tue Mar 18 15:50:47 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> The following reorganization hopefully presents numeric revisions in a slightly more coherent fashion. The only new material is the paragraph about assigning revisions for added files. * cvs.texinfo (A sample session): Bring in a sentence from Basic concepts node, defining a repository. (Revisions and branches): Renamed from Branches (it has always covered non-branch tags too). Bring in nodes "Revision numbers" and "Versions revisions releases" from Basic concepts, the former in particular was way too detailed for an intro section. (A sample session): Add comment about how we need an introduction and what might go into one. Also bring in the paragraph from Basic concepts introducing modules, but comment it out. (Viewing differences): Add comment about (Basic concepts): Removed; its content has been farmed out as described above, and as the comment said, it was fundamentally flawed. (Assigning revisions): New node. Incorporates the "New major release number" subsubsec which was in "commit examples". Add paragraph concerning how CVS assigns revisions on added files. (commit options): Refer to that node under -r. (Invoking CVS): Add comment about text for -r. Tue Mar 18 13:04:30 1997 Jim Meyering <meyering@totoro.cyclic.com> * Makefile.in: (install-info): Depend on installdirs. Sun Mar 16 12:37:12 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (File permissions): CVSUMASK now works for RCS files; but it is (still) awkward for client/server CVS. Sat Mar 15 17:41:12 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Magic branch numbers): Add comment about where this should go. Thu Mar 13 09:11:36 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Credits): Fix grammatical mistake ("manual about" -> "manual is about"). Reported by Philippe De Muyter. Sun Mar 9 09:06:40 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (File permissions): Add comment about val-tags and CVSUMASK. Sun Mar 2 12:33:26 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (From scratch): Add comment about creating directories with add rather than import. * cvs.texinfo (Creating a repository): Add comment about how this somewhat duplicates Server requirements. * cvs.texinfo (Connecting via rsh): Add comment about rsh vs. remsh. Also wording fix ("incorrect" -> "inapplicable"). * cvs.texinfo (Outside): Add comment about renames and annotate. * cvs.texinfo (Server requirements): New node. Thu Feb 27 15:20:49 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Multiple developers): Reword section on "cvs admin -l". As nearly as I can tell based on when it came up on info-cvs and other contexts, people who are into reserved checkouts generally find that cvs admin -l is OK. Add a bunch more notes (inside @ignore) about reserved checkout implementation ideas. Sun Feb 23 16:12:03 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Common options): Add various additional comments about date formats. * RCSFILES: Remove diff for Id and explain it in words instead. The previous values for Id had been clobbered by keyword expansion on the RCSFILES file itself. Sat Feb 22 14:16:28 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * Makefile.in (DISTFILES): Fix typo (missing backslash). Fri Feb 21 23:08:38 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * RCSFILES: New file. * Makefile.in (DISTFILES): Add RCSFILES. 20 Feb 1997 Lenny Foner <foner@media.mit.edu> * cvs.texinfo (Checklist): Fix typo ("keword" -> "keyword"). Thu Feb 20 21:57:05 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Keeping a checked out copy): Add "web" to index. Wed Feb 12 18:44:16 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Password authentication client, Invoking CVS): Document "cvs logout" command. Tue Feb 11 20:42:45 1997 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com> * cvs.texinfo (commit options): Document that the -f option to commit disables recursion. Sun Feb 9 13:58:59 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (diff options): Document all the options we pass through to diff. Remove paragraph about -D sometimes meaning --ifdef since that is no longer true. * cvs.texinfo (Multiple developers): Add lengthy comment about reserved checkout design issues. * cvs.texinfo (Wrappers): Add paragraph about timestamps. * cvs.texinfo (commit options): Don't try to document what CVS 1.3 does with -f and how recent versions differ: 1.3 is pretty old anyway, we generally only try to document the current version, and the way it was described here was pretty confusing. (Environment variables): Likewise for CVSEDITOR. * cvs.texinfo (import output): Add index entries for symbolic links. Add brief mention of whether behavior should be different. Add comments on other symbolic link issues. Wed Feb 5 13:02:37 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Concurrency): Add comment about commit/commit atomicity. Mon Feb 3 10:55:41 1997 joel boutros <nihilis@moral.addiction.com> * cvs.texinfo (Connecting via rsh): Fix typo (programs -> problems). Fri Jan 31 12:18:47 1997 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com> * cvsclient.texi (Connection and Authentication): Correct typo (``sent'' for ``send''), and rewrite sentence for clarity. Fri Jan 24 10:31:57 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (File status): Change "Unresolved Conflict" to "File had conflicts on merge" per change to CVS. Sun Jan 19 16:21:17 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (admin): Add comments about "group" and "compiled in value". At least one info-cvs poster was confused by this. Thu Jan 16 17:54:51 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Wrappers): It is just -t/-f which doesn't work client/server. -k *does* (well, except for the problem with import noted in BUGS). -m I don't know and I doubt anyone cares. Mon Jan 13 15:41:02 1997 Karl Fogel <kfogel@ynu38.ynu.edu.cn> * cvs.texinfo (Read-only access): rephrase to imply that there may be other administrative files, besides history and locks, which read-only users can also affect (in the future, for example, the `passwd' file). Wed Jan 8 14:50:47 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * Makefile.in: Remove CVSid; we decided to get rid of these some time ago. Wed Jan 8 09:08:36 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvsclient.texi (Connection and Authentication): Document restriction that cvs root sent in the cvs protocol and in the pserver authentication protocol must be identical. Thu Jan 2 13:30:56 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * Makefile.in, cvs.texinfo: Remove "675" paragraph; see ../ChangeLog for rationale. Thu Jan 2 09:34:51 1997 Karl Fogel <kfogel@ynu38.ynu.edu.cn> * cvs.texinfo (Read-only access): new node. (Repository): new menu item for above new node. (Password authentication server): document the user-aliasing feature. Why was this undocumented before? Wed Jan 1 18:12:11 1997 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Conflicts example): Use @asis in example to prevent starting a line with a conflict marker. This means that when maintaining the file with CVS itself, CVS will not think there is a conflict merely because of the conflict marker in the example. IMHO, this is totally bogus and CVS needs a better way of figuring out whether a conflict is resolved (see comments elsewhere in this node), but until then.... Credit to Fred Fish for reporting the problem. * cvs.texinfo (cvsignore): Add paragraph about how .cvsignore files in the sources being imported by "cvs import" override "-I !". Credit goes to Fred Fish for pointing out this problem. Thu Dec 19 12:36:46 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Credits): Update Roland Pesch email address per his request. Tue Dec 17 12:57:56 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (verifymsg): In example, remove text "and reedit if necessary"; it was copied from editinfo and doesn't apply here. Fix syntax of if statement; remove unnecessary attempt at loop; don't use -n with echo. Add @appendixsec at start of node. Add note about how verifymsg cannot change log message. (editinfo): In paragraph saying editinfo is obsolete, fix various typos and formatting glitches. Mention -e as well as EDITOR. (editinfo): In saying that editinfo doesn't get consulted with -m, -F or client/server, recommend verifymsg. Remove comment which says, in effect, "we need a feature like verifymsg". (editinfo example): Change "verifymsg" back to "editinfo" here; the example is of editinfo not verifymsg. Tue Dec 17 12:45:32 1996 Abe Feldman <feldman@cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (verifymsg): New node. various places: Say that editinfo is obsolete, or refer to verifymsg instead of editinfo Wed Dec 11 08:55:26 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Compatibility): Add comment about 1.3 and file death. * cvs.texinfo (update output, release output): Document "P" as well as "U". Tue Dec 10 16:23:40 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Builds): Change "make" to "implement" and "build"; in this context "make" is ambiguous. (Builds): Add new URL of mk web page. Mon Dec 9 11:03:37 1996 Jim Blandy <jimb@floss.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Password authentication client, Environment variables): Remove mention of CVS_PASSWORD. Sun Dec 8 22:38:34 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Repository files): Mention differences between RCS files in RCS and in CVS. (Tags): Tag names must start with a letter. Fri Dec 6 09:08:18 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (syntax): Expand discussion of regular expression syntax. Fri Nov 29 09:06:41 1996 fnf@ninemoons.com (Fred Fish) and Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo, cvsclient.texi: Make sure @ref and friends are followed by "," or "." as described in the texinfo manual. This is a dubious practice as texi2html and texinfo.tex don't require it, and makeinfo could insert them as needed, but since makeinfo doesn't do that yet, cope. * cvs.texinfo (From files): Suggest "diff -r" rather than "ls -R" as the way to see that the sources seem to have been imported correctly. (Common options): -k is also available with import. (admin options): Fix typo ("interrested" -> "interested"). Mon Nov 25 10:03:56 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Common options): Add comments about two digit years, year 2000, and ambiguous/nonexistent dates. Sun Nov 24 17:27:24 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (First import): Don't say what the wdiff program we are using as an example does--that is confusing. Also don't show untarring it--people might be familiar with cpio, ZIP, VMS BACKUP, etc., instead of tar. * cvs.texinfo (Adding files): Update comment about "cvs add -m". * cvs.texinfo (Common options): Remove -H; -H is not a command option. (Global options): Also list --help and --version. Don't say that -H gives a list of commands; it doesn't any more (directly). * cvs.texinfo: Add comment pointing to paper size web page. * cvs.texinfo (Common options): Rewrite section on date formats. Executive summary is that RFC822 and ISO8601 are now preferred. Wed Nov 20 08:39:45 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Getting Notified): Add paragraph clarifying that watches happen per user, not per working directory. Tue Nov 19 09:39:08 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Tags): Suggest that future special tag names might start with ".". Fix typo. * cvs.texinfo (Removing directories): -P is also available with export. (Moving directories): Rewrite first paragraph; now says that you must use -P for the directory to disappear from working directories. Thanks to Martin Lorentzon <Martin.Lorentzson@emw.ericsson.se> for reporting this bug. (various): Where we mention -P, point to Removing directories node. Sat Nov 16 18:03:22 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvsclient.texi (Example): Rewrite to actually be based on a real live example (and therefore reflect the way the protocol currently works). Add comment about formatting of the document itself. Thu Nov 14 10:22:58 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvsclient.texi (Introduction): Use @ref, not @xref, after "see". (Goals): Rewrite items about locking, about uploading in big chunks, and about atomicity to be focused more on the protocol than the current implementation. (Notes): Remove this node. The attempt to describe the basic model has pretty much been replaced by the Introduction. The material about how to start the client is incomplete and better left to cvs.texinfo. And the item about the lack of SERVER_FLOWCONTROL is obsolete now that SERVER_FLOWCONTROL is the default. (Protocol Notes): Add comment about multisite features. (Requirements): Use @code for requests and responses. * cvs.texinfo (Remote repositories): Add a few sentences defining "client" and "server"; before we had been using the terms without defining them. * cvs.texinfo (What is CVS?): Add paragraph about reporting bugs. Reword and expand comp.software.config-mgmt description (and add comments about other newsgroup facts). Point people at GNU list of FTP sites rather than directly at prep.ai.mit.edu. Wed Nov 6 09:45:08 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Tracking sources): Add comment regarding added and removed files. Tue Nov 5 14:00:31 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo: Rename node "Invoking CVS" to "CVS commands". Rewrite the intro and comments to reflect addition of the new Invoking CVS. (Invoking CVS): New node, a quick summary of each command. (annotate): Don't list the options; refer to Invoking CVS and Common options instead. Sun Nov 3 21:22:42 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Compatibility): New node, moved from ../README. * cvs.texinfo (Common options): Add comment about how tar manual contains documentation for getdate date formats. Fri Nov 1 14:00:31 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (commit examples): Rewrite "New major release number" section to tighten up the wording, better motivate the discussion, and replace the term "rcs revision number" with "numeric revision". Fri Oct 25 07:49:21 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (loginfo): Don't say "a la printf"; the syntax is only vaguely similar to printf. * cvs.texinfo (loginfo): To get just the repository name, suggest %{} instead of % "standing alone"; the latter is now an error. Tue Oct 22 13:08:54 1996 Noel Cragg <noel@gargle.rain.org> * cvs.texinfo (loginfo): add information on the new loginfo format string specification. Mon Oct 21 17:33:44 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Builds): New node. (What is CVS?): Refer to it. Sat Oct 19 14:32:21 1996 Jim Meyering <meyering@asic.sc.ti.com> and Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Choosing a model): Wording/grammar fix. Sat Oct 19 14:32:21 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvsclient.texi (Obsolete): New node. (Requests): Remove Repository and Lost and adjust Directory, UseUnchanged, and other places accordingly. (Required): Directory and Unchanged are now required. * cvs.texinfo (Removing files): Don't talk about modules; they are not relevant in this context. (Removing directories): New node. (Common options): Refer to it instead of duplicating information. Fri Oct 18 11:05:06 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (First import, import): Add paragraph about the fact that import doesn't modify the directory which it imports from. * cvs.texinfo (Creating a repository): Add paragraph about resource requirements. * cvs.texinfo (Copying): Replace empty node with a copy of the GPL. Thu Oct 17 12:10:55 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Adding files): Revise comment to more accurately reflect the functioning/nonfunctioning status of cvs add -m. * cvs.texinfo (Reverting local changes): New node, somewhat based on the version of this node from 30 Sep 96 change. (admin options): Refer to it. * cvs.texinfo: Reinstate 30 Sep 96 change from A4 to US letter. * cvs.texinfo (Concurrency): When telling people how to clean up locks, tell them to make sure the locks are owned by the person who has the stale locks. (update output, release output): Remove text about how CVS doesn't print "? foo" for directories; CVS has since been changed (see conflicts-130 in sanity.sh). Wed Oct 16 15:01:42 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (history options): Mention new option -x E. Mon Oct 14 15:21:25 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Tags): Add paragraph on choosing a convention for naming tags. Thu Oct 10 16:05:26 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (modules): Describe what & does. Mon Oct 7 17:20:11 1996 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com> * cvs.texinfo (Removing files): Correct apparent cut and paste error: refer to the removed file, not the added file. Tue Oct 1 14:15:33 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo: Revert all recent changes (the last unscathed one is the CVSUMASK one from Sunday). For the most part said changes are for new features which are not appropriate at this stage of the release process. None of the changes being reverted need to go into 1.9, that is for sure. Mon Sep 30 18:17:34 1996 Greg A. Woods <woods@most.weird.com> * cvs.texinfo (Credits): add comment asking if we should update. Add more detail about printing Letter on A4. Add some comments about internal comments. (From files): describe "cvs import -b 1" for importing existing projects onto the main branch. (First import): add a couple of helpful hints about naming vendor and release tags, etc., and regularize the examples with this. (Tracking sources): noted some reasons why you might use vendor branches with "cvs import". (Update imports): mention using "update" in place of "checkout" if you have an existing working directory. (Binary files in imports): add sub-menu separator comment. (Tracking sources): new menu entry "Reverting to vendor release". (Reverting to vendor release): new node to describe reverting local changes and optionally using patch(1) to move local changes forward. (Global options): describe -D and -g, as well as DIFFBIN and GREPBIN. (export examples): add one. (import options): describe the effect of '-b 1'. Mon Sep 30 08:09:53 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo: Adjust comments concerning A4 vs. US letter, referring to ../README. * cvs.texinfo (Common options): Add comment about dates which CVS uses in output. Sun Sep 29 11:14:16 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Keyword list): Don't mention Name twice. * cvs.texinfo (File permissions): Expand CVSUMASK stuff a bit. (Setting a watch, Environment variables, Global options): Update index entries for "read-only files, and ...". * cvsclient.texi (Requests): State that Gzip-stream is preferred to gzip-file-contents. Cite RFC1952/1951 rather than just "gzip". Say that RFC1950/1951 compression is also known as "zlib". Sat Sep 28 09:31:45 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Repository): Move all information about the internal structure of the repository to User modules node. Rename it to "Repository storage" ("User modules" wasn't particularly clear). Mention CVSUMASK. Much clarification and reorganization. (Basic concepts): Remove material which duplicates what is now in Repository. Rewrite paragraph introducing modules. * cvs.texinfo (Starting a new project): In discussing difficulty in renaming files, don't refer to "cvs 1.x"--there is no non-vaporous "cvs 2.x". Reword to reflect that part of the reason to avoid renames (where possible) is not because of CVS at all, and to try to give a general impression of how bad CVS issues involved in renaming are. Fri Sep 27 04:23:44 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Adding files): Talk about directories, not modules, since that is what is meant. Suggest using -kb option to add rather than running cvs admin after the fact and xref to Binary files not admin examples. Incorporate information which had been in "add" node (there was a lot of duplication). Don't document use of "add" on a directory to take the place of "cvs update -d"; the latter is simpler and more logical. (add, add options, add examples): Removed. (release output, release options): Update xrefs accordingly. (Adding files, Removing files): Mention the fact that adds and removes are branch-specific. (Merging adds and removals): New node. * cvs.texinfo (Concurrency): When mentioning RCS locks, use the term reserved checkouts and xref to the place where we discuss them in more depth. Thu Sep 26 08:26:01 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (log): Add comments about timezones. (log, Common options): Add index entries for timezone and zone, time. Wed Sep 25 11:05:30 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (log options): Add xref to where we describe the date formats that -d accepts. (Common options): Don't refer to date formats accepted by co(1); CVS's rules have never been the same. Add long whiny comment about what a mess date formats are. Tue Sep 24 11:49:02 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (From other version control systems): The RCS file must not be locked when you copy it to the CVS repository. * cvs.texinfo (Editing files): Also discuss how to revert in the non-watch case. Add some index entries. * cvs.texinfo (update output): Add comment about how we *should* be handling .# files. Mention fact that it is different under VMS. Add .# to index. Fri Sep 20 13:08:33 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Multiple developers): Revise text on reserved versus unreserved checkouts extensively. Move index entries for "reserved checkouts" and "RCS-style locking" to here. Add cross-reference to cvs admin -l. Add new section "Choosing a model". (Editing files): Add note about use of the word "checkout". Tue Sep 17 00:54:57 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Defining the module): Don't suggest "cvs co modules"; that depends on a "modules" module being defined which is not the default which is created by "cvs init". Instead suggest "cvs co CVSROOT/modules" which should always work. Tue Sep 17 00:43:49 1996 VaX#n8 <vax@linkdead.paranoia.com> and Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Rename by copying): Suggest "cvs tag -d" on the file "new", not on everything. Also don't suggest deleting branch tags. Tue Sep 17 00:34:39 1996 David A. Swierczek <swierczekd@med.ge.com> * Makefile.in (install-info): Note whether files are in srcdir and deal with it rather than cd'ing into srcdir. Mon Sep 16 23:33:36 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Wrappers): Add comment about using wrappers to compress files in the repository. * cvs.texinfo (modules): Add comments about how we should be documenting how -i and friends operate in client/server CVS. * cvs.texinfo (File permissions): Describe the need for write permissions for locks and val-tags. * cvs.texinfo (commitinfo): Add comment about using commitinfo to enforce who has access. Wed Jul 24 17:01:41 1996 Larry Jones <larry.jones@sdrc.com> and Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (checkout): Refer to "update output" node. (import): Add new import output node. (release): Correct release output menu entry (used to be release options instead). (update output): Say this is output from checkout as well as update. Mon Sep 16 16:18:38 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Common options): Clarify that CVS uses MM/DD/YY dates. * cvs.texinfo (Common options): Add comment about what HEAD means. Mon Sep 16 10:52:04 1996 Norbert Kiesel <nk@col.sw-ley.de> * cvs.texinfo (Global options): Document global '-T' option. Sat Sep 14 10:46:58 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Keeping a checked out copy): New node. Fri Sep 13 23:55:42 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Magic branch numbers): Delete song and dance about how cvs log can't cope with magic branches because rlog doesn't know about them; cvs log no longer calls rlog. Delete item about how you can't specify a symbolic branch to cvs log; that is fixed. Wed Sep 11 22:48:21 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Password authentication server): Add comments regarding port numbers and troubleshooting. Tue Sep 10 10:36:00 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (What is CVS?): Reword text regarding info-cvs, to avoid overfull hbox. * cvs.texinfo (Binary files): Add comment about further issues with recovering from failure to use -kb. * cvs.texinfo (Conflicts example): Describe the "feature" by which CVS won't check in files with conflicts. (File status): Expand and revise to document all the possible statuses from cvs status. Also document "Working revision" and "Repository revision". Refer to other sections for other aspects of cvs status. (status options): Refer to other sections as appropriate. (update output): Refer user to Conflicts example node. Add comment regarding purging of .# files. Fri Sep 6 11:47:14 1996 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com> * cvs.texinfo (Kerberos authenticated): Mention need for --enable-encryption option in order to use encryption. (Global options): Likewise, in description of -x option. Thu Sep 5 14:31:42 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Connecting via rsh): Discuss :ext:, :server:, and CVS_RSH. (Remote repositories): Mention what default is if no access method is specified. (Environment variables): Don't discuss CVS_RSH at length here; rely on reference to "Connecting via rsh" node. Mon Aug 26 15:39:18 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvsclient.texi (Protocol Notes): When talking about having the client know the original contents of files, suggest cvs edit as a solution. Thu Aug 22 10:44:40 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Keyword list): Document Name keyword. * cvs.texinfo (Tags): Revise comment regarding legal tag names. Mon Aug 12 14:58:54 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Password authentication security): Add comment about how some of this is not pserver-specific. Tue Aug 6 16:48:53 1996 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com> * cvs.texinfo (log, log options): Update for changes to cvs log now that it no longer invokes rlog. Thu Jul 25 10:10:16 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Fix typo (Kerberos-request -> Kerberos-encrypt). Wed Jul 24 18:53:13 1996 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com> * cvs.texinfo (Kerberos authenticated): Change the note that the Kerberos connection is not encrypted. (Global options): Add documentation for -x. * cvsclient.texi (Protocol Notes): Remove enhancement note about Kerberos encryption. (Requests): Add documentation for Kerberos-encrypt request. Thu Jul 18 18:27:40 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Creating a repository): Mention need to be able to create lock files in the repository. * cvsclient.texi (Responses): In F response, make at least a minimal attempt to define "flush". * cvs.texinfo (Wrappers): Document -k. (From files, Binary files in imports): Say that imports can deal with binary files and refer to Wrappers node for details. (Binary files): Likewise for imports and adds. Sat Jul 13 18:29:10 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Binary files): Add paragraph concerning the fact that the keyword expansion mode is not versioned, and why this is a problem. Fri Jul 12 18:55:06 1996 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com> * cvsclient.texi (Requests): Document Gzip-stream. Thu Jul 11 21:51:45 1996 Ian Lance Taylor <ian@cygnus.com> * cvsclient.texi (Responses): Document new "F" response. Wed Jul 10 18:46:39 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (log): Don't document "rlog"; it is deprecated. Sat Jul 6 22:07:45 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvs.texinfo (Environment variables): Document more temp directory nonsense, this time with "patch". Fri Jul 5 23:27:40 1996 Jim Kingdon <kingdon@harvey.cyclic.com> * cvsclient.texi (Responses): Add comment regarding "/." ending. Fri Sep 13 10:52:09 1996 Greg A. Woods <woods@clapton.seachange.com> * cvs.texinfo: don't force afourpaper -- Letter prints much better on A4 than the other way around, believe you me! (rdiff options): describe -k and new -K. (RCS keywords): add description of $Name. (Using keywords): add description of #ident and example of using $Name. - also fixed cross references to Substitution modes in various places.
