If you want the files to be READ only upon checkout (then you can 'edit' in
order to change the file),
you can set the CVSREAD env variable on the repository server.  (CVSREAD =
1)
I recently set this up and it works great! :)

Subject: [cvsnt] CVS edit/unedit seems opposite in TortoiseCVS (v1.83)


Hi,

I am using TortoiseCVS and would like to work with exclusive checkouts for a
module containing .doc files but after an update/commit my files are
read/write (as always) and I cannot do CVS edit. However, I can CVS unedit
the file which makes it read-only.

How can I make my commited/updated files default to read-only so I can CVS
edit them (enjoying an exclusive lock)?

Regards
/Christer
