[cvsnt] Re: Commit nofify for commit on certain branch

[Richard Bordoli]

I beleive commitinfo runs on the server.... but CVS/Entries is client
side... so I am confused as to how a commitinfo script / program accesses
CVS/Entries when it is invoked ?

If this is the case could you elaborate on how to get hold of this
inforamtion at commit time in a commitinfo script/program.

I would like to restrict commits on a per branch basis...

-Richard.

There isn't one branch tag - there can potentially be a different one 
for every file of the commit.  The CVS/Entries file that the commit 
script can see has the current tag for each file.

Set a merge ACL on the branch.
