Thanks for the reply Bo. Well, in my opinion it does make some sense to have a diferent repository for each ative project. This probably might take care of contingencies when something goes wrong with the repository. I understand Cvs is quite a stable system but I have faced a couple of situations when things just conked out (Ofcourse i agree i would have done sth wrong). For instance one of my previous mails talked about a situation wherein I was getting the following error message. cvs [commit aborted]: cannot rename file h:/repository/,file, to h:/repository/file,v: File exists I couldn't figure out why this happened and neither could I find a solution to it. I think until a person is fully comfortable with all aspects of Cvs it is advisable for him to have different repositories for ech ongoing project. -----Original Message----- From: Bo Berglund [mailto:Bo.Berglund at system3r.se] Sent: Thursday, May 23, 2002 12:47 PM To: 'Anders Truelsen' Cc: CVS-NT Mailing list (E-mail) Subject: RE: [Cvsnt] How many repositoreis can CvsNt server typically handle Anders, why do you run a separate repository for each project? This is not the standard way as I have read the CVS usage docs. After a while you will get past the 64 limit and then what? Storing each project as a module in a single repository or didviding them among a limited set of repositories each handling a class of projects (say customer based or similar) makes more sense to me. But you may have a special setup of course.... /Bo -----Original Message----- From: Anders Truelsen [mailto:at at systematic.dk] Sent: den 23 maj 2002 08:07 To: bo.berglund at telia.com; cvsnt at cvsnt.org cvsnt downloads at march-hare.com @CVSNT on Twitter CVSNT on Facebook Subject: RE: [Cvsnt] How many repositoreis can CvsNt server typically handle Hi Bo We're currently hosting about 30 repositories (one for each active project in the house) on our CVS server, so the for me the question makes perfectly go sense as stated :-) Regards /anders -----Original Message----- From: bo.berglund at telia.com [mailto:bo.berglund at telia.com] Sent: 23. maj 2002 08:00 To: cvsnt at cvsnt.org cvsnt downloads at march-hare.com @CVSNT on Twitter CVSNT on Facebook Subject: Re: [Cvsnt] How many repositoreis can CvsNt server typically handle On Thu, 23 May 2002 04:06:39 +0000 (UTC), Arvind Raman <arvind_raman_tech at yahoo.com> wrote: >We have currently transitioning to cvs, and our setup >includes the WinCvs client and the CvsNT server.

People tend to confuse repositories and modules. Repositories are the separate storage areas for modules, in theory (and many times in practice) a CVS server could work well with only one repository. Modules are the actual 'projects' that are checked in to the CVS server. Each module is separately stored in a repository and contains all files and folders needed for a project. There is no limit to the number of modules that can be handled (except disk space and such). /Bo (Bo Berglund, developer in Sweden) _______________________________________________ Cvsnt mailing list Cvsnt at cvsnt.org http://www.cvsnt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cvsnt https://www.march-hare.com/cvspro/en.asp#downcvs _______________________________________________ Cvsnt mailing list Cvsnt at cvsnt.org http://www.cvsnt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cvsnt https://www.march-hare.com/cvspro/en.asp#downcvs _______________________________________________ Cvsnt mailing list Cvsnt at cvsnt.org http://www.cvsnt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cvsnt https://www.march-hare.com/cvspro/en.asp#downcvs __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
