# Changing CVS team settings

You can customize the settings related to a number of CVS team views and operations.

1. Open the Team preference page. You will see a number of general Team options. These options can be used by any Eclipse integrated repository. In our case, they are all applicable to CVS.
2. You will also see a Team > CVS preference page containing various CVS options.
3. Underneath the Team > CVS preference page are several sub-pages. For example, there are pages for Watch/Edit, Console, Label Decorations and SSH2 among others.

In the Preferences dialog, you can search by keywords such as CVS or SSH2 in order to show only the relevant pages.

## Changing CVS Project Settings

You can change CVS project settings in the properties dialog of a project.

- From the context menu of a view showing the project, select Properties
- Click on the CVS category

From this dialog, you can:

- Enable Watch/Edit on the project.
- Specify whether new or absent folders should be fetched when an update is performed.
- Change the repository location to which the project is associated.
