--- Erhalten von I0.U114371 0512 20 26 41 12.11.03 10.14 hai bo, thanks for your answer; the reason is that i think the effort to define user privileges using NTFS security is too high; we habe about 100 developers and some extern collaborators. defining their privileges using NTFS means that each project admin has to waste around with the privileges on the server's filesystem. worst case: in one year, EVERYONE has ALL rights EVERYWHERE. many users will have privileges but the users have left the company long time ago... the privileges are not created to keep code hidden, its done to prevent unwanted changes (we use PVCS at the moment which follows the pessimistic locking system...). using a repository per project allows the project admin to add a writers file, which is much easier to handle than NTFSprivileges; best thing would be a writers file per MODULE, not per repository, but i know thats not possible... anyway your answer helped me alot. regards ivo (i know, my english is bad, but my taylor is rich...) **************************************************************************** From: bo.berglund at telia.com To: cvsnt at cvsnt.org cvsnt downloads at march-hare.com @CVSNT on Twitter CVSNT on Facebook Date: Tue, 11 Nov 2003 19:27:18 +0100 Subject: Re: [cvsnt] max number of repositories?

But why in the world do you want to have so many repositories??? I think that you might have misunderstood the workings of CVS here. You don't need a *repository* for each project you want to maintain, instead you create a *module* for each. The only reason I can think of to separate stuff into different repositories is when you want to make sure there can be no interaction between the modules of each. This can happen for example if you work on a consultancy basis and you want to keep customer code well isolated. However, dividing stuff into different respositories makes it impossible to use the built-in cvs support for creation of logical modules where some support files are part of many different projects. This cannot be done across repositories. /Bo (Bo Berglund, developer in Sweden) _______________________________________________ cvsnt mailing list cvsnt at cvsnt.org cvsnt downloads at march-hare.com @CVSNT on Twitter CVSNT on Facebook http://www.cvsnt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cvsnt https://www.march-hare.com/cvspro/en.asp#downcvs ---- 12.11.03 10.14 ---- Gesendet an ------------------------------------- -> cvsnt at cvsnt.org cvsnt downloads at march-hare.com @CVSNT on Twitter CVSNT on Facebook
