    • We collect Jira feedback from various sources, and we evaluate what we've collected when planning our product roadmap. To understand how this piece of feedback will be reviewed, see our Implementation of New Features Policy.

      NOTE: This suggestion is for JIRA Server. Using JIRA Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.

      When the CVS root (eg. '/home/cvspublic' in :pserver:anoncvs@cvs.apache.org:/home/cvspublic) is a symlink, or the module directories are symlinks, then JIRA's CVS log parsing fails.

      "Error parsing cvs log: RCS filename '/home/cvs/project.xml,v' does not start with the provided root '/home/cvspublic'"

      This is because JIRA tries to guess the root path from the CVSROOT, and in the case of symlinks (or aliases - see JRA-4586) guesses wrongly. We should allow this root to be explicitly set.
