The filename structure is that of an .ini file (it's parsed by Python's ConfigParser module): [section1] key1=value1 key2=value2 [section2] The only available section is server. It hols the configuration data needed for connecting to the server. The area key selects the default area to work on after connecting to the repository. The server_type key selects between the two kinds of servers in &cfvers;: local server (in-process) and remote server (through Pyro remote objects). Examples: [server] server_type=local or: [server] server_type=remote In a local server configuration, there are only two items to configure: the repository type and the connect information: repo_meth This is the repository type. Currently, the sqlite and postgresql options are available. repo_data This is the connect information and depends on the repository type. For sqlite, it is the name of a (writeable) file. For postgresql, it is the connect information to the database, in the following format: dbname=mydb user=myuser password=mypassword.... The available keys/value pairs are: dbname the name of the database to connect to (required); user the username to use when connecting to the database; not required (in which case the connection will use your login name); password the password for the database; not required if you use the trust authentication method; host the IP address or name of the database server; if not given, the connection will be on localhost through UNIX sockets; For more options possible, please consult the Postgresql documentation. The remote server configuration is more complex. The possible values are: host the hostname or ip address of the machine on which the cfversd server is running; port the port number on which the server is listening; username the username used to connect; client_password the password used to authenticate (the client) to the server; server_password the password used to authenticate the server (to the client); &client-local-sqlite; &client-local-postgresql; &client-remote; cfv 1 , cfvadmin 1 , cfversd 1 , cfversd.conf 5 , cfvers user manual cvs 1 , svn 1 This manual page was written by &dhusername; &dhemail; The manual pages cvs 1 and svn 1 were used as sources of inspiration (and copy-paste in some cases), since these are real versioning programs :-), with proper man pages.
