- @(#)README 1.8 92/04/10
-
- This "contrib" directory is a place holder for code/scripts sent to
- me by contributors around the world. This READM file will be kept
- up-to-date from release to release. BUT, I must point out that these
- contributions are really, REALLY UNSSUPPORTED. In fact, I probably
- don't even know what they do. Nor do I guarantee to have tried them,
- or ported them to work with this CVS distribution. If you have questions,
- you might contact the author, but you should not necessarily expect
- a reply. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK -- and all that stuff.

- Contents of this directory:
-
- README This file.
- log.pl A perl script suitable for including in your
- $CVSROOT/CVSROOT/loginfo file for logging commit
- changes. Includes the RCS revision of the change
- as part of the log.
- Contributed by Kevin Samborn <samborn@sunrise.com>.
- pcl-cvs A directory that contains GNU Emacs lisp code which
- implements a CVS-mode for emacs.
- Contributed by Per Cederqvist <ceder@lysator.liu.se>.
- commit_prep.pl A perl script, to be combined with log_accum.pl, to
- log_accum.pl provide for a way to combine the individual log
- messages of a multi-directory "commit" into a
- single log message, and mail the result somewhere.
- Also does other checks for $Id and that you are
- committing the correct revision of the file.
- Read the comments carefully.
- Contributed by David Hampton <hampton@cisco.com>.
- mfpipe.pl Another perl script for logging. Allows you to
- pipe the log message to a file and/or send mail
- to some alias.
- Contributed by John Clyne <clyne@niwot.scd.ucar.edu>.
- rcs-to-cvs Script to import sources that may have been under
- RCS control already.
- Contributed by Per Cederqvist <ceder@lysator.liu.se>.
- cvscheck Identifies files added, changed, or removed in a
- cvscheck.man checked out CVS tree; also notices unknown files.
- Contributed by Lowell Skoog <fluke!lowell@uunet.uu.net>
- cvshelp.man An introductory manual page written by Lowell Skoog
- <fluke!lowell@uunet.uu.net>. It is most likely
- out-of-date relative to CVS 1.3, but still may be
- useful.
- dirfns A shar file which contains some code that might
- help your system support opendir/readdir/closedir,
- if it does not already.
- Copied from the C-News distribution.
- rcslock.pl A perl script that can be added to your commitinfo
- file that tries to determine if your RCS file is
- currently locked by someone else, as might be the
- case for a binary file.
- Contributed by John Rouillard <rouilj@cs.umb.edu>.
- cvs_acls.pl A perl script that implements Access Control Lists
- by using the "commitinfo" hook provided with the
- "cvs commit" command.
- Contributed by David G. Grubbs <dgg@ksr.com>.
- descend A shell script that can be used to recursively
- descend.man descend through a directory. In CVS 1.2, this was
- very useful, since many of the commands were not
- recursive. In CVS 1.3 (and later), however, most of
- the commands are recursive. However, this may still
- come in handy.
- Contributed by Lowell Skoog <fluke!lowell@uunet.uu.net>
- cln_hist.pl A perl script to compress your
- $CVSROOT/CVSROOT/history file, as it can grow quite
- large after extended use.
- Contributed by David G. Grubbs <dgg@ksr.com>
