- Authors of GNU CVS
- The conflict-resolution algorithms and much of the administrative file
- definitions of CVS were based on the original package written by Dick Grune
- at Vrije Universiteit in Amsterdam <dick@cs.vu.nl>, and posted to
- comp.sources.unix in the volume 6 release sometime in 1986. 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@cvshome.org> came on in
- 2003.
- 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).
