Compile the 64bit binaries of WinCVS

CVS Output Log

Anonymous — Fri, 07 Sep 2012 16:23:53 -0000

It would be nice to be able to enable an option and specify a file location on the WinCVS client computer where all the CVS commands generated by the WinCVS client are logged. The file could be reviewed to obtain past activity for troubleshooting purposes. The file could be opened in at text editor or purged when necessary.

As it stands now, the commands are echoed to the output window but the contents of the output window are lost when the client is closed. Maybe this feature could be as simple as teeing the output to a file in append mode.

Allow tcl script to pass multifile arg to cvs

toddw9 — Fri, 16 Jul 2010 05:32:50 -0000

I was attempting to enhance the serial cvs processing of cvs files for speed within TCL. The idea was to build a list of files and append the list to the cvs command. The problem encountered was that the file list was passed as a single argument to cvs and the resulting error was that cvs could not find the extended file list passed as a single file. I could not find a way to accomplish this task within TCL for an unknown number of files in the selection. I have attached the modifed code used to solve this problem. This code works for me currently, but it may cause a problem if a directory is encountered that contains a space (used as a delimiter in my modification.) Perhaps a disqualified file/directory name character could be used when creating a list of files?

Make WinCVS compatible with Python 3.1.1

There is no such python dll in this newer version. WinCVS does not work.

Make Update/Create missing directories sticky

Adfasdf ADfsdf — Wed, 22 Jul 2009 14:47:44 -0000

I would like to have update default to using -d. After Shift-Update and selecting "Create missing directories that exist in the repository" and updating, the checkbox is reset to unchecked next time. It would be good if WinCVS remembered this setting.

Flat View -- Show unknown dirs

Adfasdf ADfsdf — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 15:25:39 -0000

Unknown directories should be listed in the flat view so that they can be added.

(Note that if an unknown directory is present in the CVS tree and you do not want to see it you should be using .cvsignore files to exclude it.)

Flat View -- Locate subdir in tree

Adfasdf ADfsdf — Fri, 26 Jun 2009 18:53:46 -0000

I would like to be able to right click an item in the flat view and have it locate/sync the subdirector in the tree

Flat View -- Add multiple items

Adfasdf ADfsdf — Fri, 26 Jun 2009 18:52:28 -0000

You can't add multiple items at once if they are in different subdirectories

address bar functionality

maggotcake — Wed, 09 Jan 2008 11:32:34 -0000

I often have to access large repositories (many layers of sub-directories), having an address bar type feature to type in (and copy & paste) into would be very helpful in switching directories which have similar names without having to navigate back out to the top then back in.
It could be similar to the address bar in Firefox, which includes a drop down for recently visited locations.

Scrolling Graph View by Mouse Weel scrolls too much!

csm101 — Wed, 28 Nov 2007 16:41:49 -0000

When browsing a very big version graph (several hundreds of tags/releases) the mouse wheel is actually useless: a single tick of the scroll wheel can jump 5-6 pages at a time: it makes you loose the point you were looking at and forces you to seek it again by using the keyboard (cursor up/dn or pgUp/pgDown), which is the only human-friendly scrolling method.

I think that a mouse wheel tick should never scroll more than 1/3 of the visible area under any circumstances.
