Just etiquette? Here's the 7-point tour of CVS: 1. An administrator sets up files on a CVS server, which is like a Web server, only smarter. 2. You download files that you are interested in editing. 3. You edit them to your heart's content. 4. Your friends-and-relations do the same. 5. When you are content, you upload your file. If your changes don't conflict with those already made by your friends-and-relations, all is well. 6. If there is a conflict, CVS makes you figure out what the Right Thing is, and won't let you upload until you do. 7. The administrator can roll back changes he thinks are a Bad Thing. -- John Cowan cowan@ccil.org One art/there is/no less/no more/All things/to do/with sparks/galore --Douglas Hofstadter
