[cvsnt] Re: Sync of Local and Remote CVS Server

[Manjunath N.S.]

Hi,

what you said is right, But my requirement is I donot want share my
development code to other teams, only release source code I want to
share, for this reason I want to maintain seperate local CVS server
for my module.

So what I will do is, on my local CVS server I will have two branches,
one branches for sycnhronizing with Remote CVS Server and other branch
for the developement purpose. So for my relase I will merge these two
branches make it well tested. Then I will add new release to Remote
CVS Server.

But How to Sync Local CVS Branch with Remote Server.

thanks
manju
