Re: [Codestriker-user] Configuring the log_accum.pl file to create CVSdiff topics automatically

NP.  Good to know that only the .pm is required.

As for team discipline... I suggest a large stick... and a carrot of
course. :-)

Mark,

Thanks again for your help.  It seems that only CodestrikerClient.pm
needs to be installed on the cvs server.  I have set $CODESTRIKER_URL
and $CODESTRIKER_REPOSITORY as you suggested.  Happily, Codestriker is
working as expected with cvs!  Now if I can only discipline my team to
use it effectively...

Shimon
