Hi
Posting a 2nd time; does anyone know the answer to my questions? Thank you
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi
I'm reading the manual for CVS 1.11.20 and on page 27 (preprinted on the
page, however, the .pdf document shows it to be page 29) I find the
documentation for readers and writers files somewhat confusing and
ambiguous. Could both readers and writers coexist or one at any given time?
Question 1: Could anyone tell me when (as of what version) these files were
implemented? I'm running CVS 1.11.1p1 on our Linux server and I just
created the 'readers' file anyway and added a user to and will ask him to
test it. I don't think I could or would want to test and block myself lest
running the risk of undoing what I've done. Would my current version of CVS
understand readers?
Question 2: If not, then I'm overdue an upgrade and hate to bring down the
server during a critical release. Would someone please shed some light on
upgrading?
Thanks
Steve
