DESCRIPTION
cvscan is a small utility mainly for
cvsyncd. During a synchronization,
cvsyncd scans and compares a directory structure of
each collection on the client with one on the server. When a scanfile is used
on the server, cvsyncd does not scan a directory
structure and use the information from the scanfile instead. This allows to
reduce disk i/o load radically.
However, if the server is the origin or the upstream server does
not use cvsync, the scanfile has to be generated on
the server. cvscan is the utility for that
purpose.
Since cvsync automatically generates
scanfiles for each collection with the keyword
‘scanfile’,
cvscan is usually not needed on the client.
The following options are available:
-F- Doesn't follow a symbolic link. By default,
cvscanfollows a symbolic link and handle it as is. -L- Forces
cvscanto set ‘errormode’ to ‘fixup’. Refer the keyword ‘errormode’ incvsyncorcvsyncd. -cfile- Specifies the configuration file for
cvsyncd. -ffile- Specifies the output file. The file must be writable.
-h- Print the usage of
cvscanto standard error. -l- Forces
cvscanto set ‘errormode’ to ‘ignore’. Refer the keyword ‘errormode’ incvsyncorcvsyncd. -q- Be silent mode.
-rrelease- Specifies the release type. Refer the keyword
‘
release’ incvsyncorcvsyncd. -v- Be verbose mode.
EXIT STATUS
Thecvscan utility exits EXIT_SUCCESS on success, and
EXIT_FAILURE if an error occurs.
