[Buildbot-devel] BuildBot with CVSNT

[Carl Dionne]

I'm using BuildBot on windows, using CVSNT.  I could not get it to
perform cvs login correctly - I'm not sure, but I believe that CVSNT
somehow clears the stdin before accepting the password, and redirecting
the password to a cvs login command does not work properly.

 

As a workaround, it is possible to perform a cvs login -p password,
under CVSNT (I'm not sure if this is supported by the standard cvs).
Here is a change I did to commands.py to get that working fine.

<                        + ['login'])

---

>                        + ['login','-p',self.login])

 

This is a little hacked as it does not include any option to configure
the behavior (-p or stdin), but I was not sure what was the proper way
to do this with BuildBot.

 

I'm mentioning this, in case someone else has a similar problem.
