How to prevent cvs checkout for specific labels

[dpshiv]

Hi All,
Is there any trigger/hook or any other mechanism to prevent CVS
Checkout/export/update operations for specific labels.

Ex. TAG1, TAG2, TAG3, TAG4, TAG5
checkout/update/export operation for TAG1 & TAG2 should fail. (cvs co
-r TAG1 mod_dir)

Regards,
Shiv

Have a look at the cvs_acls script. It's in the source code
distribution, in the contrib/ directory. I haven't looked at it in a
while, but if memory serves it should do what you want.

Hi Jim Hyslop,
Thanks for the reply. I have installed cvsacl patched version of CVS and
used racl command to prevent the checkout for specific tags, it is working
fine.

Shiv
