1: Cvsweb only offers annotate sometimes?
Posted by Lars Pind on 11/03/03 05:32 PM
It seems to me that cvs.openacs.org is moody.

When I look at some file:

http://cvs.openacs.org/cvs/openacs-4/packages/workflow/tcl/case-procs.tcl

Sometimes I get 3 or 4 options: View, markup, annotate, text, or something like that.

And sometimes I get only one: View/download.

Has anybody else experienced this? Any clue what would cause it, and how to fix it?

I switched to viewcvs and it seems to not offer annotate
for some file types (.tcl and .sh it seems).
I will see if it's easy to fix.

Jeff,

While you're mucking about, could you see if there is a way to  set the MIME type that's returned when the (view/download) link for a .tcl file is clicked?

The new interface causes the browser to want to download the file instead of viewing it. The old interface worked as expected.

Thank you,

Randy

that should be fixed (it was happening since viewcvs
uses the mime type to decide if it's annotatable and tcl
was application/x-tcl -- I changed it to text/plain).

Randy, that should fix the download as well.  If you see any
more files that don't offer annotate or download properly
let me know and I will fix them as well.

Thank you Jeff.  That mime type change helps me a lot.
