Synopsis: Bug fix devel/cvsweb Responsible-Changed-From-To: freebsd-cvsweb->knu Responsible-Changed-By: scop Responsible-Changed-When: Mon Aug 9 15:59:55 GMT 2004 Responsible-Changed-Why: (Over to knu who maintains the cvsweb* ports.) This is a known issue. The current version of cvsweb (3.0.1, available as devel/cvsweb3, I'd recommend switching to it) documents this a bit better: # Options to pass to cvs(1). # For cvs versions 1.11 to 1.11.6 (broken in < 1.11, removed in 1.11.7), you # can use the '-l' option to prevent cvs from writing to the history file. # For other cvs versions, either suppress history logging by using the # LogHistory parameter in CVSROOT/config or make sure that the CVSweb user # can read and write to CVSROOT/history. knu, perhaps it would make sense to apply the patch from this PR to the current devel/cvsweb port. However, not using -l may require tweaking of things according to the above. Your call... http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=69854
