Hi there, im new in CVS and i was reading about local and remote revisions.
When i look at a java file history it shows a list of remote and local revisions.
Since I edit and save and build my files A LOT, the list is huge and i'd like to disable those things from going into CVS, how do i do that? i only want it to show the changes after i've commited, that to me is the whole purpose of it.

can i somehow disable that from going into the CVS server? i find myself scrolling a lot in history i don't think is fair for other developers to do that as well.

Thanks

The local history is maintained locally, it does not go to the CVS server.

In the history view's toolbar, there are three buttons - Remote
Revisions (the yellow cylindrical icon), Local Revisions (a rectangular
window like icon), Local and Remote Revisions (combination of both the
other icons). If you want to see only the Remote Revisions (the ones on
the CVS server), just click the 'Remote Revisions' button.

Thanks for the response but that's not quite what I meant.
I don't mind if i see my local revisions but I don't want that to go into the CVS server and other developers having to see soo many lines of revisions caused by me on my local, i just want the revisions i commited to be sent to CVS server, not my local... if that's not possible then how do i disable my local revisions? i just don't see why if im debugging something and change the same line many times it has to go to the cvs server for everyone to see.

As I said the local history is maintained locally and only you can see
it, it does *not* go to the CVS server.

then how is it possible i see a bunch of blanks with the local revision icon that don't belong to me?, it must be from someone else's (I know because I never touched those and it's being worked by another developer).

If I can see someone else, im sure they can see mine, i see them all mixed together (mine and their local)

A local revision is created whenever you edit a file and save it. Even a
small change of adding a ';' will create a local revision. As a result
you can see a large number of local revisions.

What you see are edits/revisions made by you on your local machine.
