In Bamboo 2.0, we rewrote the CVS implementation and replaced the CVS log command with the CVS rlog command - this lets you perform a CVS update on your local working directory without checking out your project.

CVS Error logging in Bamboo

Currently, if the server throws an error during a CVS build in Bamboo versions 2.0.x, the application will hang with no indication of any checkout/update problems. There is an open JIRA issue tracking this problem.

In order to further debug any CVS issues, you will need to turn up the CVS logging by passing in the -DcvsClientLog=system system argument to Bamboo.

1) Incompatibility with CVS servers 1.11.1 and below

Support for the rlog command 1.11.1p and performing a CVS rlog command returns the following error:

-cvs [rlog aborted]: server does not support rlog

2) Incompatibility with CVS server version 1.11.x when using "." to denote the root module to be checked out.

The CVS rlog command fails if you are using CVS version 1.11.x, with the following error.

INFO   | jvm 1    | 2008/05/15 14:19:10 | E cvs: recurse.c:642: do_recursion: Assertion `strstr (repository, "/./") == ((void *)0)' failed.
INFO   | jvm 1    | 2008/05/15 14:19:10 | error

Please upgrade your CVS version to 1.12.x to get around this issue.

3) CVS Checkout format

Due to prior issues, Bamboo will checkout all files (including text files) from the CVS server as binary, however post Bamoo 2.1.2 this behaviour can be changed via a system parameter. To do this restart Bamboo with

-DCVS_CHECKOUT_BINARY_FORMAT=false  

Post 2.1.5 this has been replaced with a more flexible option

-DCVS_CHECKOUT_FORMAT=BINARY

オプション

Command Options

Behaviour

BINARY (Default)

-b

forces all files to be checked out in binary and won't convert any line endings

TEXT

-kv

forces all files to be checked out as text and converts all line endings (even Binary files)

NONE

 

lets CVS decide whether or not to convert line endings
