Re: [Phpgedview-talk] using cvs for gedom version history

Hi John,

Thanks for the reply.  I followed your instructions and added the
proper files to the CVS directory under the index directory (Entries,
Repository, Root) and I did a manual commit and the oliver.ged file
was indeed committed to the repo.  However, after making a couple of
changes to the tree, I can see that the oliver.ged file has been
changed in the server's file system, but no commit was made to the CVS
repo reflecting the change.  I am sure that I am still just missing
something basic here because the log file does show the tree updates
but no CVS-related activity.  I will keep digging, but if you have any
insight, I would appreciate it.

Best,
Mike
