Vedr.: Re: [Cvsnt] CVSRootChanger for Windows

[jml at nykredit.dk]

Another approach (a simple command file):

@echo off
ECHO
**************************************************************************
ECHO   This script changes the CVS-repository for all checked out modules
in D:\Projects
ECHO
**************************************************************************
REM Set new cvsroot
SET CVSROOT=:yourserver:machineid:C:\SOURCE
REM Set the root of your sandboxes
SET CVSPRDIR=D:\Projects
REM Find all Root files and call subroutine to make the change
FOR /R %CVSPRDIR% %%I IN (root) DO CALL :CHGROOOT "%%I"
GOTO :EOF
:CHGROOOT
if not exist %1 goto :NEXT
REM Tell what you do
echo Changing root in module %1
ECHO %CVSROOT%>%1
:NEXT
:EOF

we addressed this problem for MacCVS users by using BBEdit to do a
search/replace over multiple files (search for 'oldserver' in all files
called Root, replace with 'newserver')

i have also used this one-liner to fix my CVS/Root files (on win2000 using
cygwin/perl):

find . -name Root -exec perl -nle 's/oldserver/newserver/; print;' -i.bak
{} ;
