Running a very recent (3days) ccvs.
I want to commit as root. Its the easiest way on my setup.
However following Larrys' advice about editing src/options.h is not
working for me here.
Run ./configure Then edit out the section in src/options.h about
BADROOT. Completely remove those three lines. When I run make
options.h gets overwritten with the original content.
OK, so try editing src/options.h.in by removing that section.
Run make distclean edit src/option.h.in
./configure
Now checking src/options.h to see that it contains nothing about
BADROOT. It does not.
make && make install
But still cvs doesn't allow me to commit as root.
I thought maybe since it was a remote connection that cvs server on
the other end was doing it. So compiled that (current released)
version in the same way. Commenting out the lines about BADROOT after
running ./configure.
Now both client and server have been compiled with BADROOT edited
out. Still root is not allowed to commit.
Anyone know what might be going on here?
