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.
