Home Directory In CVS

Obligatory "I hate CVS" message. Can't wait for Subversion to come of age.

You don't use science to show that you're right, you use science to become right.
I just heard some sad news on talk radio - Server/Alternative OS *BSD was found dead in it's primary server this morning. There weren't any more details. I'm sure everyone in the Slashdot community will miss it - even if you didn't enjoy its work, there's no denying its contributions to Slashdot trolling. Truly an American icon.
Family members of the BSD community ask that people send donations to their favorite Open Source project in lieu of sending soap.

freaking brilliant, i have no idea what CVS is or how putting you hiome DIr in there will solve a problem, but hey it's in /. and thererfore must be brilliant!
...to pay your $1499 licensing fee you cock-smoking teabaggers.
Remember, the price went up November 1st.
While this is a cool idea, it's not even remotely innovative. Can we please put up some kind of first year Unix user filter for story submissions?
And how the hell is this newsworthy? it's not...slashdot has once again gone a little further downhill in the quality of their news; this time so that we'll look at their new pretty banners and earn them double the cash every time we look at an article. now that slashdot is obviously heading in the commercial direction maybe someone ought to consider putting together a new geek news site?

I don't want the world having access to my personal files, thanks. Hence I use Windows XP. More secure than anything lunix puts out.
Including the local copy of the Worm of The Week (TM), too!
Why are linux fatties so goddamned stupid? Do you all do this kind of crap and then talk/read/write/post about it all day? Thank god there are people like me to put slashtrash nerds like you in your place.
Hope you felt cozy inside that locker freshman year.
Fuck. Too late. I fail it. Girly man.
Four words: RTFM!
I was doing this with Perforce and OS 9 years ago...and I know others that did it long before me.
You can use it to roll back the wole system 5 to 9 times a day when some asshole discover yet another vulnerability on IIS and decides to 'test it on your server'.
...

Or, when you install the new version of that stupid control panel, and it fucks your registry up
Or when one some luser create a file called ' ? * * lpt1 prn' in an incoming directory, shure, just roll the changes back
Good way to administrate a system, until this tool from the devil fucks up your registry, eats 90 MB of RAM, 20 % of CPU, and make you reinstall windoze after causing you 3 hours of downtime, Shure!, it's the best!! Keep creating such amazing software bill!.
WTF am I doing replying to an AC at 5 A.M on a Friday night?
and one or two cool ideas made popular by debian in the 90s gives you the right to be a close-minded, elitist, gentoo basher?
I use gentoo, but I realise that other distros also do/did cool things (especially debian - in many cases I would rather use it) and I don't mentally grep for their names and post hostile replies whenever I encounter them.
