Hey everyone,

Sorry for the OT post but I don't know of any other lists where this
would be appropriate so I'm sending it here.

I will be interfacing with a CVS server not hosted on a Windows machine
(it will be a bsd/*nix variant) and frankly I've never used it. What
client do all you Windows people use? Also, how does it wotk in
conjuction with your favorite editor? (Mine is HTML-Kit.) Is it
necessary to run some command-line scripts to get the updates populated
to the CVS server?

Also, when working with CVS do you work directly on your local station
or on the remote server? Take for example my situation. I'm just running
plain win2k pro. and I don't have Apache OR PHP installed and I don't
want to install them either. I use HTML-Kit to ftp into my linux server
and work on the files that way.

>From the little reading I've done on CVS you download the entire source
tree and then sync your changes with everything else at a certain time.
If I have to download everything will I then have to move it all to a
PHP compatible server (i.e. the one I use for dev now)?

As I'm thinking about it, maybe an alternative would be to have the CVS
client on the dev server I currently use and then modify the files the
way I always do. Then when I'm ready to sync I can just ssh into the dev
server and run some scripts...

Some guidance in this area would be greatly appreicated!!


Thanks,
Chris.
