Contributors to PCL-CVS ​

Contributions to the package are welcome. I have limited time to work on this project, but I will gladly add any code that you contribute to me to this package (see Bugs (known and unknown)).

The following persons have made contributions to PCL-CVS.

  • Brian Berliner wrote CVS, together with some other contributors. Without his work on CVS this package would be useless…
  • Per Cederqvist wrote most of the otherwise unattributed functions in PCL-CVS as well as all the documentation.
  • Inge Wallin wrote the skeleton of pcl-cvs.texi, and gave useful comments on it. He also wrote the files elib-node.el and compile-all.el. The file cookie.el was inspired by Inge.
  • Linus Tolke contributed useful comments on both the functionality and the documentation.
  • Jamie Zawinski contributed pcl-cvs-lucid.el, which was later renamed to pcl-cvs-xemacs.el.
  • Leif Lonnblad contributed RCVS support (since superseded by the new remote CVS support).
  • Jim Blandy contributed hooks to automatically guess CVS log entries from ChangeLog contents, and initial support of the new Cygnus / Cyclic remote CVS, as well as various sundry bug fixes and cleanups.
  • Jim Kingdon contributed lots of fixes to the build and installation procedure.
  • Greg A. Woods contributed code to implement the use of per-file diff buffers, and vendor join diffs with emerge and ediff, as well as various and sundry bug fixes and cleanups.
  • Greg Klanderman implemented toggling of marked files, setting of CVS command flags via prefix arguments, updated the XEmacs support, updated the manual, and fixed numerous bugs.
  • Stefan Monnier added a slew of other features and introduced even more new bugs. If there’s any bug left, you can be sure it’s his.
  • Masatake YAMATO made a gracious contribution of his cvstree code to display a tree of tags which was later superseded by the new cvs-status-mode.

Apart from these, a lot of people have sent us suggestions, ideas, requests, bug reports and encouragement. Thanks a lot! Without you there would be no new releases of PCL-CVS.
