This original -version was a collection of shell scripts. I am thankful that Dick made -his work available. - -Brian Berliner from Prisma, Inc. (now at Sun Microsystems, Inc.) -<berliner@sun.com> converted the original CVS shell scripts into reasonably -fast C and added many, many features to support software release control -functions. See the manual page in the "man" directory. A copy of the -USENIX article presented at the Winter 1990 USENIX Conference, Washington -D.C., is included in the "doc" directory. - -Jeff Polk from BSDI <polk@bsdi.com> converted the CVS 1.2 -sources into much more readable and maintainable C code. He also added a -whole lot of functionality and modularity to the code in the process. -See the bottom of the NEWS file (from about 1992). - -david d `zoo' zuhn <zoo@armadillo.com> contributed the working base code -for CVS 1.4 Alpha. His work carries on from work done by K. Richard Pixley -and others at Cygnus Support. The CVS 1.4 upgrade is due in large part to -Zoo's efforts. - -David G. Grubbs <dgg@odi.com> contributed the CVS "history" and "release" -commands. As well as the ever-so-useful "-n" option of CVS which tells CVS -to show what it would do, without actually doing it. He also contributed -support for the .cvsignore file. - -The Free Software Foundation (GNU) contributed most of the portability -framework that CVS now uses. This can be found in the "configure" script, -the Makefile's, and basically most of the "lib" directory. - -K. Richard Pixley, Cygnus Support <rich@cygnus.com> contributed many bug -fixes/enhancement as well as completing early reviews of the CVS 1.3 manual -pages. - -Roland Pesch, then of Cygnus Support <roland@wrs.com> contributed -brand new cvs(1) and cvs(5) manual pages. Thanks to him for saving us -from poor use of our language! - -Paul Sander, HaL Computer Systems, Inc. <paul@hal.com> wrote and -contributed the code in lib/sighandle.c. I added support for POSIX, BSD, -and non-POSIX/non-BSD systems. - -Jim Kingdon and others at Cygnus Support <info@cygnus.com> wrote the -remote repository access code. - -Larry Jones and Derek Price <derek@ximbiot.com> have been maintaining and -enhancing CVS for some years. Mark D. Baushke <mdb@gnu.org> came on in -2003. - -Conrad Pino <Conrad@Pino.com> began maintaining the Windows port in 2004. - -There have been many, many contributions not listed here. Consult the -individual ChangeLog files in each directory for a more complete idea. - -In addition to the above contributors, the following Beta testers -deserve special mention for their support. This is only a partial -list; if you have helped in this way and would like to be listed, let -bug-cvs know (as described in the Cederqvist manual). - - Mark D.
