===== Solution: CVS/ACL ===== | |||
CVS/ACL is a patch to CVS for access control list management. It provides advanced ACL definitions per modules, directories and files on branch/tag for remote cvs repository connections. As a result the execution of all CVS subcommands can be controlled with eight different permissions. | |||
# (n) no acess | |||
# (r) read - allows subcommands: annotate, checkout, diff, export, log, rannotate, rdiff, rlog, status | |||
# (w) write - only cvs commit/checkin action. Not allowed add/remove files to/from repository. | |||
# (t) tag | |||
# (c) create | |||
# (d) delete | |||
# (a) full access except admin rights | |||
# (p) acl admin | |||
The advantages of CVS/ACL are: | |||
* Branches/packages are protected from modification from 'non-authorized' groups. | |||
* General users check out code, experiment with it and check in modified files to their 'own private branches'. | |||
* Tags from major releases are protected from modification by non-authorized users. | |||
* General users are not allowed to directly manipulate repository files. | |||
