@ -10,6 +10,7 @@ This plugin allows ikiwiki to use [[!wikipedia desc="CVS" Concurrent Versions Sy
* creates a small post-commit wrapper to prevent `cvs add <directory>` from being seen by ikiwiki's [[post-commit]] hook,
* configures the wrapper itself as a post-commit hook in `CVSROOT/loginfo`.
* [`cvsps`](http://www.cobite.com/cvsps/) is required (`rcs_recentchanges()` and `rcs_diff()` need it to work).
* [[!cpan IPC::Cmd]] and [[!cpan String::ShellQuote]] are required (to safely keep `cvs` quiet and to safely escape commit messages, respectively).
* CVS multi-directory commits happen separately; the post-commit hook sees only the first directory's changes in time for [[recentchanges|plugins/recentchanges]]. The next run of `ikiwiki --setup` will correctly re-render such a recentchanges entry. It might be possible to solve this problem with scripts like `commit_prep` and `log_accum` from CVS contrib.
* Due to the name of CVS's metadata directories, it's impossible to create `.../CVS/foo.mdwn`. On case-insensitive filesystems it's also impossible to create `.../cvs/foo.mdwn`.
* No testing or special-casing has been done with [[attachments|plugins/attachment]], but they'll probably need `cvs add -kb`.
