| TODO ITEMS |
| ---------- |
| *) add Tamminen Eero's comments on how to make Linux directly execute |
| the Python script. From email on Feb 19. |
| [ add other examples, such as my /bin/sh hack or the teeny CGI stub |
| importing the bulk hack ] |
| |
| *) insert rcs_path into PATH before calling "rcsdiff". rcsdiff might |
| use "co" and needs to find it on the path. |
| |
| *) show the "locked" flag (attach it to the LogEntry objects). |
| Idea from Russell Gordon <russell@hoopscotch.dhs.org> |
| |
| *) committing with a specific revision number: |
| http://mailman.lyra.org/pipermail/viewcvs/2000q1/000008.html |
| |
| *) add capability similar to cvs2cl.pl: |
| http://mailman.lyra.org/pipermail/viewcvs/2000q2/000050.html |
| suggestion from Chris Meyer <cmeyer@gatan.com>. |
| |
| *) add a tree view of the directory structure (and files?) |
| |
| *) include a ConfigParser.py to help older Python installations |
| |
| *) add a check for the rcs programs/paths to viewvc-install. clarify the |
| dependency on RCS in the docs. |
| |
| *) have a "check" mode that verifies binaries are available on rcs_path |
| |
| -> alternately (probably?): use rcsparse rather than external tools |
| |
| KNOWN BUGS |
| ---------- |
| *) time.timezone seems to not be available on some 1.5.2 installs. |
| I was unable to verify this. On RedHat and SuSE Linux this bug |
| is non existant. |
| |
| *) With old repositories containing many branches, tags or thousands |
| or revisions, the cvsgraph feature becomes unusable (see INSTALL). |
| ViewVC can't do much about this, but it might be possible to |
| investigate the number of branches, tags and revision in advance |
| and disable the cvsgraph links, if the numbers exceed a certain |
| treshold. |
