cvs-pserver8

Usage

Overview

This manual page documents briefly the cvs-pserver command. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution.

cvs-pserver is a simple wrapper script that allows easier control of the CVS pserver. It is configured using the file /etc/cvs-pserver.conf. The options that can be set in that file are:

CVS_PSERV_REPOS
This should contain a colon-separated list of all the CVS repositories you wish to use.

CVS_TMP_DIR
Is the location of the temporary space that you wish cvs to use for certain operations like import. If unset, CVS will fall back to $TMPDIR then /tmp.

CVS_PSERV_LIMIT_MEM

CVS_PSERV_LIMIT_DATA

CVS_PSERV_LIMIT_CORE

CVS_PSERV_LIMIT_CPU
These may be used to set process limits on cvs resource usage if desired.

CVS_EXT_PASSWD_FILE
Is the location of an (optional) external password file, used to override the CVSROOT/passwd file for authentication if set.
