Forum OpenACS Development: Delete a revision from CVS

Collapse
Posted by Malte Sussdorff on
How is it possible to delete a revision of a file from CVS to prevent it from showing up in google through cvs.openacs.org.

By accident a customer string made it into the public CVS and google indexed the cvs.openacs.org page and therefore got the customer.

The page with the string is now in Google's index, so I think you'll have to wait for Googlebot to visit the page again: at that point you'll have done a direct manipulation on the CVS server's files to make the string disappear (as far as I know it's the only way to "fix" mistakes in CVS commits).

cvs admin -o allows you to "oblitereate" revisions. Read the man page.
