CVS = Concurrent Version System...
regiroado do: http://www.freebsd.org/support.html#cvs CVS Repository CVS (the Concurrent Version System) is the tool we use for keeping our sources under control. Every change (with accompanying log message explaining its purpose) from FreeBSD 2.0 to the present is stored here, and can be easily viewed from here (click on the link). To obtain a complete copy of the FreeBSD CVS repository or any of the development branches inside it, you may choose any one of following options: cvsup if you're looking for on-demand, low overhead access using a custom utility (written in Modula-3 no less). anoncvs if you're looking for on-demand access that has higher overhead than cvsup (in terms of wall time and bytes transferred) but is easier to use for checking out small pieces of the tree and requires nothing more than the cvs tools already bundled with FreeBSD. CTM if you're looking for very low overhead, batch-mode access (basically, patches through email). The web interface if you're looking to simply browse the repository in search of a specific change or file revision. Finally, if you've got bandwidth to burn or you prefer / are forced to use FTP, you can simply mirror the CVS repository from ftp.FreeBSD.org. Mirrors of the CVS Repository cgi script are available in California, Germany, Japan and Spain (English, Spanish). -----Mensagem original----- De: Douglas S.
