No response from > git-cvsserver users. I never resent with modifications as Junio requested. I've been busy with some end-of-year close-out stuff, and actually wanted to dramatically simplify part of the patch before the resend. I'll do that shortly. Since Gitosis wants to do repository-level access control before running any Git commands, I figured out a CVSROOT format that would let it do this. Given that, there's only one repository that an invocation of git-cvsserver should be allowed to access, and so the issue of "list separator" and so forth is moot. The resultant CVS command line looks something like cvs -d ":ext;CVS_SERVER=cvs '/path/to/module':charmgit/path/to/module.git" co -d module Note that I have had to modify Gitosis to make this, and various other things, work. I had wanted to clean up my work before announcing it, but if it would help you now, it is publicly available from github now: git://github.com/PhilMiller/gitosis.git The documentation hasn't been updated, but the recent history makes as least some usage clear. I'll send more details in a follow-up.
