Usage question (automatically get the current project-root)

[Daniel Leidert]

Hello,

I have a question, I hope someone can answer. In my case, cvsweb can
show two project-roots. This means, in cvsweb.conf, I have something
like this:

@CVSrepositories = (
  'project1' => ['project1', '/var/lib/cvs/cvs/project1'],
  'project2' => ['project2', '/var/lib/cvs/cvs/project2'],
);

Now I wrote some checkout infos in $long_intro:

[..]
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous\@cvs.foo.bar:/cvs/project-root co module

where project-root is one of the projects you see listed in the
pull-down menu below.
[..]

Now I would like to have the possibility to automatically write the
correct current project-root where the user is - instead of writing the
general "project-root" phrase with the explanation, what this phrase is.
So if the user is looking at project1, the output of $long_intro should
automatically be:

[..]
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous\@cvs.foo.bar:/cvs/project1 co module
[..]

The ideal case would be to be able to do the same for $short_intro, but
there also with the possibility to automatically write the right
module-name.

Any ideas, how or if this could be realized? (I hope, you understand the
sense of this request.)

Regards, Daniel
