How to hide CVS files

14 Apr, 2003

I use CVS to manage my web-content, so that I can edit it and upload changes. An unfortunate side-effect is that my web content-directory is littered with "CVS" directories. I'd rather people weren't able to view them.

Luckily, my hoster supports mod_rewrite, so it was just a matter of adding the following line to .htaccess: 

    RewriteRule     CVS(/.*)?$      -       [F]
