Everyone, Here is a first draft of the new instructions for individual developer files. Any and all feedback is welcome.
---- Begin FAQ ---- *** Browsing the Current Repository *** You can view our repository using ViewCVS http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/leaf/ The following instructions are specific to Linux. If you're using another operating system, please look at: SourceForge: Project Documentation 7. CVS - OS Specific Information http://sourceforge.net/docman/?group_id=1 Replace all occurrences of yourname with your SourceForge unix user name. *** Initial CVS Setup *** Check to see if cvs is installed on your machine. If not, install it before proceeding further. $ which cvs Set the environment variable below. Note: You may want to add it to your shell dot file. $ export CVS_RSH=ssh Now ssh into the SourceForge cvs server to initialize your home directory. $ ssh -l yourname cvs.leaf.sourceforge.net *** Initial CVS Check Out *** You can now create a local cvs/leaf tree by following these steps from your local machine. $ cd ~ $ mkdir cvs $ mkdir cvs/leaf $ cd cvs/leaf $ cvs -d:ext:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/leaf co doc $ cvs -d:ext:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/leaf co devel/yourname Note the lack of a / in front of devel and doc. This should create a tree like this: cvs/leaf/-+ doc/ -+ docmanager | + guides | + howtos | + devel/yourname *** CVS Commands *** Now you can update and add files by changing into the proper directory. Example: $ cd cvs/leaf/doc/docmanager $ cvs up $ cvs ci -m "Comment about FAQ update" docid_xxxx.html Example: $ cd cvs/leaf/devel/yourname $ cvs up $ cp ~/foo.bar . $ cvs add foo.bar $ cvs ci -m "added foo.bar" foo.bar *** Importing a New Tree Into CVS *** If you need to import a newtree to your devel tree, use the following command. Important: Do not do this from your checked out cvs tree. $ cvs -d:ext:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/leaf import devel/yourname/newtree vendor start $ cd cvs/leaf/devel/yourname $ cvs up This will get the newtree from cvs. ---- End FAQ ---- -- Mike Noyes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://leaf.sourceforge.net/ _______________________________________________ Leaf-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-devel
