**help needed for CVS**

[Gupta, Richa (GE Healthcare, consultant)]

Hi,

 

I am using CVS for maintaining versions of my code.

I had recently joined this project and my colleague gave me a code for some changes.

That piece of code was checked-out by him on his machine.

I made the changes in code and when i went to check-in the code in CVS from my machine, I found that its asking my colleague's password for checking-in.

Now my colleague has left the project and in no way i can use his password.

Also the code changes are very large in number, so I do not want to take a risk of doing them again in new code checked out by me.

 

As the code was checked-out by my colleague on his machine and I am trying to check-in through my machine and hence the problem.

Please tell me if there is any way that my problem can be solved.

I will be really grateful.

 

Thanks & Regards,
Richa Gupta
