relying on CVS automation scripts.

For security reasons, the CVS repositories are now hosted on
non-executable mounts. This means that if you uploaded various tools and
scripts (most notably mail-on-commit ones), they won't work from now.
However the Savannah team tried to offer some replacement solutions.
Syncmail users : the latest version from the main branch of Syncmail
(revision 1.36 from http://sf.net/projects/cvs-syncmail) has been
installed. Please replace occurences of '$CVSROOT/CVSROOT/syncmail' with
a simple 'syncmail' in your CVS control files.
Log_accum/commit_prep users : Savannah has some in-house-tweaked
versions installed that should still fit your needs. Strip
'$CVSROOT/CVSROOT/' parts from the script inovocations.
CIAbot users : until someone comes up with a patch (ie. no hardcoded
project values), we can't fix that issue.
Other strange scripts : please contact <address@hidden>.
Please note that the latest version of CVSreport
(http://www.nongnu.org/cvsreport/) has been installed and can replace
the previous scripts with more versatility in many cases. Add a single
line like the following in your CVSROOT/commitinfo to try it :
ALL cvsreport -e 'mail text+html address@hidden'
Sorry for the temporary inconvenience, and happy CVS hacking !
