@ -18,41 +18,70 @@ Version 1.0 (not yet released)
|
|||
(2002-Dec-12)
|
||||
* add new "use_localtime" option to display local times instead of
|
||||
UTC times (2002-May-06)
|
||||
* add new "root_parents" option to make it possible to add and
|
||||
remove repositories without modifying the ViewCVS configuration
|
||||
(2004-Jul-16)
|
||||
* add new "template_dir" option to facilitate switching between
|
||||
sets of templates (2005-Feb-08)

||||
* add new "sort_group_dirs" option to disable grouping of

|
||||
URL compatibility with old versions of ViewCVS). When disabled,
|
||||
bare file URLs (with no query parameters) will return checked
|
||||
out file contents instead of log listings. That way, checkout
|
||||
URLs no longer need magic /*checkout*/ strings in them for
|
||||
relative links and image paths in checked out HTML files to work
|
||||
(2005-Feb-13)
|
||||
* hide CVS "Attic" directories and add simple toggle for showing
|
||||
dead files in directory listings (2004-Jul-31)

|
||||
markup pages, annotate pages, and error pages
|
||||

|
||||
escape special characters, and content-oriented tags like
|
||||

|
||||
* add new "root_parents" option to make it possible to add and
|
||||
remove repositories without modifying the ViewCVS configuration

|
||||

<p><strong>ViewCVS</strong> is a WWW interface for CVS and Subversion repositories.
|
||||
You can browse the
|
||||
file hierarchy by picking directories (which have slashes after
|
||||
them, <em>e.g.</em>, <strong>src/</strong>). If you pick a file, you will see
|
||||
the revision history for that file. Selecting a revision number
|
||||
will display that revision of the file. There is a link at each
|
||||
revision to display diffs between that revision and the previous
|
||||
one, and a form at the bottom of the page that allows you to
|
||||
display diffs between arbitrary revisions.
|
||||

<p><em>ViewCVS</em> is a WWW interface for CVS and Subversion
|
||||
repositories. It allows you to browse the files and directories in a
|
||||
repository while showing you metadata from the repository history: log
|
||||
messages, modification dates, author names, revision numbers, copy
|
||||
history, and so on. It provides several different views of repository
|
||||
data to help you find the information you are looking for:</p>

<ul>
|
||||
<li><a href="help_dirview"><strong>Directory View</strong></a> - Shows
|
||||
a list of files and subdirectories in a directory of the repository,
|
||||
along with metadata like author names and log entries.</li>
|
||||
|
||||
<li><a href="help_log.html"><strong>Log View</strong></a> - Shows a

||||

|
||||

|
||||
displayed as marked up text. The markup may be limited to turning URLs
|
||||
and email addresses into links, or configured to show colorized source
|
||||
code.</li>
|
||||
|
||||
<li><strong>File Download (Checkout View)</strong> - Retrieves the
|
||||

|
||||
the file, or just save it to disk.</li>
|
||||
|
||||
<li><strong>File Annotate View</strong> - Shows the contents of a file
|
||||
revision and breaks it down line by line, showing the revision number
|
||||
where each one was last modified, along with links and other
|
||||
information. <em>This view is disabled in some ViewCVS
|
||||
configurations</em></li>
|
||||
|
||||
<li><strong>File Diff View</strong> - Shows the changes made between
|
||||
two revisions of a file</li>

|
||||
revision including log message, author, and a list of changed paths.
|
||||
<em>For Subversion repositories only.</em></li>
|
||||
|
||||
<li><strong>Graph View</strong> - Shows a graphical representation
|
||||
of a file's revisions and branches complete with tag and author

<h3>ViewCVS and Multiple Repositories</h3>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>A single installation of ViewCVS is often used to provide access to
|
||||
more than one repository. In these installations, ViewCVS shows a
|
||||
<em>Project Root</em> drop down box in the top right corner of every
|
||||
generated page to allow for quick switching between repositories.</p>

||||
