Re: Using Tortoise with a web project (several developers)

Yes.  Eventually we figured it out, implemented and now works great!

Ideally yes, but we are in a virtually server environment and currently
don't have all the resources.

 

However, with your help and some effort on our part, we find that using
a single directory on our website works just great!

 

As a user changes a file, other users see the icon colors change to
yellow...when checked in, back to green.

 

Works just fine in a shared environment so far...

Torsten,

 

Thank you for all your help.   Overall, TortoiseCVS seems very useable
for what we want to do!

 

Here are the open issues:

 

 

Install TortoiseCVS for each user.

 

Works.  That seems to give each user the icons in Windows Explorer (but
since this installed over and over is on the same machine, doesn't it
overwrite the executable in Program Files each time we install it?)

Yes.



 

What does your CVSROOT look like?

 

:pserver:[email protected]:2401/cvsrepository

There's your problem - you have put the user name into the CVSROOT.
Don't do that, then CVS will use your Windows login instead.

Note that you might still have problems with file permissions - I
recommend that you use one workstation for each developer.
