CVS Server Administration Tips?

Posted by Cliff on Tuesday January 18, 2005 @05:50AM from the care-and-feeding-of-source-repositories dept.

Twintop asks: "The company I'm working for has asked me to take over administration of their CVS server for a decent sized project. The current setup of the CVS server needs to be wiped clean and started fresh. The only times I've ever used CVS (and used it poorly at that) was with a few SourceForge.net (An OSTG Site) projects. What are some suggestions on reference materials for a newbie to CVS (but not to Linux) and methods of administration that have worked for you in the past?"

Oh, come on, don't be lazy, Google is your friend. You want free advice for something you are getting paid to do and for which you do not want to spend a couple of hours researching and learning. Why was this question even approved? Is this news for nerd or news for lazy newbs?
