Web Log WEB日志
Web Log offers much of the same functionality as the History and Revision Graph dialogs. One important difference is that Web Log is not part of TortoiseCVS itself, but depends on special software that may be installed on the CVS server you use. Two popular packages for providing Web Log functionality are ViewCVS and CVSweb — ask your CVS administrator if one of these is available. WEB日志提供如同历史和版本图类似的大部分功能，一个重要的不同是WEB日志不是TCVS本身的一部分，而是依赖于特定的软件，一般都是安装在CVS服务器上的，两个流行的提供WEB日志的软件包 VIEWCVS和CVSWEB－请询问网管使用的是www.shengfang.org哪一个。

To view the Web Log, you open a special URL using a web browser. TortoiseCVS knows the most common URLs in use for this and can in most cases detect the correct one automatically[2]. If your configuration is nonstandard, you may have to enter the URL manually the first time - next time TortoiseCVS will remember it. 查看WEB日志，你应该使用一个浏览器打开一个特定的网址，TCVS默认检测比较通用的网址，并且自动检测正确的网址。如果你的配置不是标准的，你应该在首次使用的时候手工输入一个网址，TCVS下次将会记住它。www.shengfang.org

You can view Web Log for a file or folder by selecting it and right-clicking CVS → Web Log. If TortoiseCVS fails to detect the URL, the dialog below will appear. 你可以查看文件或者目录的WEB日志，选择－右键－CVS－WEB日志。如果TCVS检测失败，www.shengfang.org将出现如下对话框。Figure 3.9. Web Log Dialog

Enter the correct URL and click OK. If the URL of the Web Log server has changed, you may have to tell TortoiseCVS to perform the automatic scan again. 输入正确的网址再点击确定。如果WEB日志的服务器网址被动，你应该设置TCVS再次自动检测-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Making a Patch File 作个补丁程序
Often you might have read access to a CVS repository or module, but not write access. Open source projects typically work this way to maintain quality control for all contributions to a project. The easiest and most reliable way to contribute changes to these projects is by creating a Patch File to submit to them. 很多时候你可能只有CVS仓库的读权限而没有写权限。开源项目就是典型的这种工作方式，这种方法可以保证一个项目的质量控制，最简单而且最可靠的提交修改的办法是创建一个补丁文件并提交。www.shengfang.org

In TortoiseCVS this is done by selecting the folders or files with changes that you wish to include in the patch file. Right-click on your selections and choose CVS → Make Patch... from the context menu. You will then be prompted with a Save dialog to indicate where to save your patch file. Finally, TortoiseCVS will open the new patch file in Notepad, where you can validate your changes. 在TCVS，首先选择你想要包含在补丁文件中的做了修改的文件或者目录。右键，选择CVS-制作补丁。你将看到一个保存对话框并且提示你把文件保存到哪里。最后TCVS将在记事本中打开一个补丁文件，你可以验证你的修改www.shengfang.org

Sometimes your contribution involves adding new files, which are not yet in CVS. TortoiseCVS cannot guess that you would like these to be included in the patch, but in the Save dialog you can click the Browse button to bring up the Add dialog. Here you can select files to be included in the patch. www.shengfang.org有时候你想提交一个不存在于CVS中的新文件，TCVS不能猜测到哪个是你想要增加到补丁文件的，在保存对话框你点击 浏览 按钮，弹出一个新增对话框，在这里你可以选择你想要加入补丁文件的文件。
