SYNOPSIS

       cdvserver [-c file | -n] [-f file] [-l file] [-p file] [-b] [-d] [-r] [-u user]

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual  page  documents briefly the cdvserver command.  This manual page was written
       for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

       cdvserver is a server for the codeville distributed revision system.  A server keeps track
       of  revisions and holds a database used for revision control.   The codeville system needs
       both a server and a client.  cdv is the only known codeville client.
