1. CVSTrac Introduction
-----------------------
CVSTrac is A Web-Based Bug And Patch-Set Tracking System For CVS:

  * Automatically generates a patch-set log from CVS check-in comments
  * User-defined color-coded database queries
  * Web-based administration of the CVSROOT/passwd file
  * Built-in repository browser
  * Built-in Wiki
  * Very simple setup - a self-contained executable runs as CGI, from
    inetd, or as a stand-alone web server
  * Minimal memory, disk and CPU requirements - works on old hardware
  * Access permissions configurable separately for each user
  * Allows for anonymous users
  * Uses a built-in SQL database engine (SQLite) - no external RDBMS
    required
  * Tested under Linux - works on other versions of Unix. Also works
    under Windows
  * Can be run from a chroot jail for added security.
  * GNU Public License

2. Windows Version Introduction
-------------------------------
Usually CVSTrac works under Unix/Linux. In its official site, there's a
document describes how to work under Windows:
(http://www.cvstrac.org/cvstrac/wiki?p=CvstracOnWindows)
But it's difficult and restrained. So I make this software to help us use
CVSTrac more easily.

Our works:

  * Compile SQLite and CVSTrac under Cygwin
  * Write a NT service CVSTracSvc.exe to start as a service
  * Write CVSTracOption.exe to make configuration more easily
  * Write CTSender.exe and some plugins for sending ticket notificaition
  * Manage passwd for CVSNT
  * Import/Export CVSTrac users list
  * User-defined charset support.
  * Fix a series of problem for CVSNT

Compile Environment:

  * cygwin-1.5.18.1
  * sqlite-2.8.16
  * cvstrac-1.2.0
  * Delphi 7

Tested Environment:

  * Windows Server 2003 Stardard Edition
  * Windows 2000 Server SP4
  * Windows XP Professtional SP1
  * CVSNT 2.0.58d

3. Installation
---------------

  * Run install exe to install, need not uninstall the old version.
  * Run CVSTrac Option.
  * Click 'Auto Import' button to import CVS Repositories in CVSNT.
  * Double click every item, modify it.
  * Import/Export users list in database setup dialog.
  * You can add/delete CVS Repositories also.

Test it:

Select a database, click 'Browse' button, if you can see the login
page in opened Explorer, then it is OK!

The default login user is 'setup', password is 'setup' also.
You can create others accounts after login.
Anonymous can access server when 'anonymous' account exists.

4. Operation
------------
Note:

  * Restart service needed after modify database path, port or language.
  * Modify database need not restart service.
  * When system running, do not modify cvs repository and module prefix in
    database, except cvs repository moved.
  * Backup database directory when needed, rewrite it when restore.
  * Configure ticket notificaition plugins if you want to use ticket notify ferture.

Use passwd file on CVSNT:

  * Create a local system user 'cvsuser' who can to access the CVS repository.
  * Set the CVSTrac database to support passwd file.

5. Uninstall
------------

Run the uninstall program.

6. Get Source Code
