SYNOPSIS

       cfversd [options]

       cfversd [--help]

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual page documents briefly the cfversd command, version 0.5.4.

       cfvers is a version control system designed for the management of  con-
       figuration files in Unix-like operating systems..

       cfversd  is the server daemon which allows remote clients to access the
       repository.

NOTES

       The server creates the temporary files in the directory pointed by  the
       PYRO_STORAGE  environment  variable. If this variable does not exist or
       is empty, it will use the current directory. Please define  this  vari-
       able before starting the server.

OPTIONS

       These  options  follow  the  usual  GNU  command line syntax, with long
       options starting with two dashes (`-').  cfversd  has  two  classes  of
       options: global options and command options.

       -h, --help
                 Show summary of options.

       -c, --config FILE
                 The  configuration  file  to  use  which  specifies the users
                 allowed, the backend database, etc. See  cfversd.conf(5)  for
                 the format.

       -p, --pidfile FILE
                 The file into which to write the pid of the daemon.

       -P, --port PORT
                 The  port on which to listen (overrides the one from the con-
                 fig file).

       -f, --foreground
                 Don't fork into the background.

       -l, --logging FILE
                 The file which containts the logging configuration. This is a
                 python  logging  configuration format. Here you can configure
                 output  to  files,  syslog,  email,  etc.  For  details,  see
                 http://docs.python.org/lib/logging-config-fileformat.html; an
                 example file is provided in the source distribution.

                 A   very   small   file    which    outputs    messages    to
                 /var/log/cfversd.log is:

       handlers=myLogfile

       [handler_myLogfile]
       class=FileHandler
       args=('/var/log/cfversd.log',)
       formatter=myFormatter

       [formatter_myFormatter]
       format=%(asctime)s %(name)s(%(process)d:%(thread)d): ** %(levelname)s ** %(message)s

       Many! Please notify me if you find any.
