I am trying to bring up CVS 1.0 on my system. I recently upgraded to
RCS 5.5. It appears that CVS 1.0 understands RCS version 4 files.
Is there an official version of CVS that works with RCS 5.5? Where I
can get it? Also, can anyone send me Brian Berliner's current email
address?

CVS 1.0 will not work with RCS 5.5. A new version will be available sometime
soon. This info from the author.

I'm sure that Brian Berliner could give you more info then this.. cvs is a front end to the rcs(l) revision control system which extends the notion of revision control from a collec- tion of files in a single directory to a hierarchical col- lection of directories consisting of revision controlled files. These directories and files can be combined together to form a software release. cvs provides the functions necessary to manage these software releases and to control the concurrent editing of source files among multiple software developers. -- ______________________________________/Abandon all hope ye who enter Trevor Paquette ICBM:51'03"N/114'05"W | - Gate Keeper of Labyrinth [~] [~] uunet![utai,alberta]!calgary!paquette |All who enter are abandoned...| |^^^^| | paquette@cpsc.ucalgary.ca | - Survivor of Labyrinth |_|_/\_|_|

What are the chances of having CVS ported to SysV? I was having a look at the source code yesterday and it doesn't look hard. Has any one done it? It needs the ndbm library. Is gnu's gdbm a suitable replacement?

Has any one done it? >It needs the ndbm library. Is gnu's gdbm a suitable replacement? I have it running on Xenix 2.3.2. It required writing some routines to emulate the BSD specific functions called, shortening a few file names to make them compatible with SysV 14 character limits. I'm using gdbm and it seems to be OK, but I don't fully understand the modules stuff enough to properly test it. I rewrote checkin in perl adding a few features such as the ability to save the files before checkin and ignore binary and empty files. I can send patches if you like.
