I would have thought that the easy way to avoid accidental commits would be to not run "cvs ci" :-) Or to just realize and cancel when the log message editor appears.


Frivolous comments aside, I have also done work in an anoncvs tree, although in my case it was so I could have the anoncvs repository be an rsynced local copy.

There is an alternate technique you might find useful:

You can checkout by anoncvs, do work, and then commit like this:

cvs -d:ext:realuser@server:/repos commit

from the same working copy.

No accidental commits(!) and no need to port the changes to a second working copy for commit.

Max.
