Thanks Arthur, we are still using version 1.11 of CVS under Linux (revision
23), as that is what comes bundled with RHEL.

Two questions:

1) I've looked for 1.12 to download and can find nothing that calls 1.12
"stable".  All downloads for this version are under the "feature"
directories.  Is there a stable version of 1.12?

2) Is there documentation available that lays out how to use change sets...a
web link somewhere?

Thanks,
Steve

Steve,

And if you think that's a lot of fussing around for a simple result - it's
why 'changesets' were invented:
http://march-hare.com/cvsnt/features/changesets/en.asp

CVS supports two kinds of changesets:
- CVSNT 2.x and CVS 1.12 both support 'atomic' changesets (what Subvserion
calls 'atomic commits')
- CVSNT 2.x on Linux/Unix/Windows/Mac supports 'user defined' changesets
(what ClearCase calls a 'defect')

I have observed that increasingly the job of managing 'change sets' is being
offloaded into proprietary systems (Jira et al) even when the 'source
control' is open.  I'm not a fan of this for several reasons, but mostly I
just think that pragmatically the information about the relationship between
one change and the other belongs in the versioned repository not in a
separate database.

note: it has been observed that if your CVS repository gets cluttered with
'too many' tags the performance can decrease, which is (one of many
reasons) why in CVSNT 2.x for Linux/Unix/Windows/Mac we put in user defined
changesets.

Regards,


Arthur Barrett
