+Only anonymous access is provided by pserver by default. To commit you
will have to create pserver accounts, simply add a gitcvs.authdb
setting in the config file of the repositories you want the cvsserver
to allow writes to, for example:
for example:
------
- myuser:$1Oyx5r9mdGZ2
- myuser:$1$BA)@$vbnMJMDym7tA32AamXrm./
+ myuser:sqkNi8zPf01HI
+ myuser:$1$9K7FzU28$VfF6EoPYCJEYcVQwATgOP/
+ myuser:$5$.NqmNH1vwfzGpV8B$znZIcumu1tNLATgV2l6e1/mY8RzhUDHMOaVOeL1cxV3
------
You can use the 'htpasswd' facility that comes with Apache to make these
files, but only with the -d option (or -B if your system suports it).
Then provide your password via the pserver method, for example:
------
- cvs -d:pserver:someuser:somepassword <at> server/path/repo.git co <HEAD_name>
+ cvs -d:pserver:someuser:somepassword@server:/path/repo.git co <HEAD_name>
------
No special setup is needed for SSH access, other than having Git tools
in the PATH. If you have clients that do not accept the CVS_SERVER
CVS_SERVER directly in CVSROOT like
------
-cvs -d ":ext;CVS_SERVER=git cvsserver:user@server/path/repo.git" co <HEAD_name>
+ cvs -d ":ext;CVS_SERVER=git cvsserver:user@server/path/repo.git" co <HEAD_name>
------
This has the advantage that it will be saved in your 'CVS/Root' files and
you don't need to worry about always setting the correct environment
+
--
------
- export CVSROOT=:ext:user@server:/var/git/project.git
- export CVS_SERVER="git cvsserver"
+ export CVSROOT=:ext:user@server:/var/git/project.git
+ export CVS_SERVER="git cvsserver"
------

4. For SSH clients that will make commits, make sure their server-side
`project-master` directory:
+
------
- cvs co -d project-master master
+ cvs co -d project-master master
