# cvsweb(7)

a CGI interface to your CVS repository

## NAME

cvsweb - a CGI interface to your CVS repository

## SYNOPSIS

**http://localhost/cgi-bin/cvsweb/**

## DESCRIPTION

**cvsweb** is a CGI script that offers convenient web access to your CVS repository. As such, you are unlikely to find it useful to run it by hand, and there are no command line options; instead visit the URL above.

## FILES

- */etc/cvsweb/cvsweb.conf*

  **cvsweb** configuration file. You must set up the location of your repositories here before the CGI script will work.

- */etc/cvsweb/cvsweb.conf-***\<***symbolic\_name***\>**

  Per-CVSROOT configuration file. \<*symbolic\_name*\> must be the symbolic name given in **@CVSrepositories** in */etc/cvsweb.conf*.
