Hi Todd and Lawrence,
Thanx a lot for ur suggestions on giving folder level in cvs. It worked
perfectly well and Iam
managing my repositories pretty well.
Thanx again ....
Now my concerns are whether I have a previlage to lock the tags that are
created. As I have worked
more with perforce, I have a doubt whether I can do the same with cvs.
When a user creates a tag, is there any means by which other users cannot
update the tag.
Thanx in advance :)
