RE: CVS Client via WEB

[leosaguiar]

Answers:
1) what sort of files do you want to checkout/in using a web browser?
Answer .jsps, .docs, .xmls, .tar, plsql files, vb files, html files, csv,
txt, xml

2) why not use TortoiseCVS client / why does it have to be web based?
Answer: because i have 4 development teams across the country working on
specific software developments at a same time and sometimes its impossible
to install client programs on some customer environments (desktops).
  
3) Since web applications cannot (usually) write to a local disk how
would you envisage a 'web checkout' to work.
Answer: by an specific protocol like ftp, or something like that. I dont
know , it's an idea, but we already use MS Sharepoint to Chekin and Checkout
documents across WEB.
  
4) do you want to 'edit' a file in the web browser?
No. Just check-out, check-in, lock, commit and maybe merge

I found a software called JCVS. It works like a a CVS client via WEB?
