Editing Root |

Hello all,
A colleague of mine has a CVS tree which he burned onto a CD and gave to me.
Now I'm responsible for this source tree.
I can do nothing with this tree as he gave it to me because all of the Root
files contain his user ID. I do not have his password, so I cannot log in as
him.
I have written a shell script to edit every Root file in the tree to change
his user ID to mine. This seems to have worked. I say this based on the fact
that I can issue these commands:
cvs -n -q update
cvs diff
Is there anything wrong with having done this, or am I good to go?
Thanks,
Dave
