We basically use the master branch in git as a single, updated CVS version of the code; we don't do any development there, just CVS updates.

Hi
i'm going to be responsible for deciding how tagging branching is going to happen in our CVS/SVN repo.
Is there any literature that will help me understand the best way to work with CVS? either branching/tagging, etc?
thanks

CVS is file.
My personal experience during more than 10 years of CVS at the FreeBSD project is: switch to something else as fast as you can.

My company unwittingly switched from cvs to subversion and now we're all wishing we had cvs back. I know there's tools to migrate history and changes from cvs to svn and there's no equivalent to do the reverse. Any suggestions or ideas on how to do this...

What is the best approach to implement access control on CVS repositories hosted on a Linux server? The goal is to prevent accidental deletion of modules by developers. The developers should be able to do all other CVS activities.

What should they be able to do precisely?
