Next: annotate, Previous: add, Up: CVS commands [Contents][Index]
This is the CVS interface to assorted administrative facilities. Some of them have questionable usefulness for CVS but exist for historical purposes. Some of the questionable options are likely to disappear in the future. This command does work recursively, so extreme care should be used.
On unix, if there is a group named cvsadmin
,
only members of that group can run cvs admin
(except for the cvs admin -k
command, which can
be run by anybody). This group should exist on the
server, or any system running the non-client/server
CVS. To disallow cvs admin
for all users,
create a group with no users in it. On NT, the
cvsadmin
feature does not exist and all users
can run cvs admin
.
