Ugh, I just reverted to the prior enforce script. I'll take a look at it
again in the morning.

Currently lowercase name enforcement is active.

Everyone,
I just removed the lowercase enforcement from our repository. If win
clients start leaving broken stub files in our repository, we'll need to
reexamine this issue.

David,
Not as far as I know, but a new check out is necessary if you want to
modify any of the files in the newly imported tree.

I usually delete my old local tree and check out a new one after
imports.

Now I've actually (with Mike's help) been able to properly
update this to reflect the current state of my ports configuration.

Be aware that I must go over these again to refresh my memory and to
update any thing that needs updating.

That directory "archive" isn't supposed to be there; I'm going
to try and delete it...

Here is a portion of the comments from one of the Makefiles:

# Standard makes
#
# make all  -- the usual
# make fetch-- get required tar files
# make extract  -- get and extract tar files
# make patch-- get, extract, and patch source
# make binary   -- create binaries
# make clean-- clean out working directory

Things to do:

* update the system so it uses a set of files pretailored for
  most configurations

* further document files

* update all Makefiles

* dependency operations?  Have one "port" check for another and do it
  if need be.  Things like busybox (uClibc) could use this, but most
  things might not need it.

One difficulty is not being able to "install" the code directly;
perhaps this could be overcome with prefixes (PREFIX=xxx)
and other such shenanigans.

One make target I don't see would be "make package" (or "make lrp")
which should probably be there

David,
Both of these actions are performed using "import" from a directory
outside of your checked out tree. Example:

$ cvs -d:ext:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/leaf import \
-I ! "devel/yourname/newtree" vendor start

Note: you must check out your tree after an import. An update will
not retrieve the newly imported directory tree.

I'll try to help where I'm able.

I'd like to avoid placing more files on our SF shell server. We're
already using ~900M. That's 400M than we're allocated.

As Michael Schleif noted, I was only able to get the directory tree
and the top-level makefile.  No matter what I did, I could NOT find
a way to:

* add to CVS all directories and files recursively from a given path
  on down.

I also don't think I could even:

* add to CVS a directory, including the directory and ALL files
  contained within it.

It appeared that I would have to add EACH and EVERY file ONE by ONE.

I've a CD burnt with the "ports tree" (more of an Oxygen base source tree)
around here, and hope to get it into CVS with help... Maybe I should
upload it to my devel home directory

[Leaf-devel] [OT] Speaking of Licensing (2.nd try)

Anyway, I tried sending this yesterday, and since it hasn't shown up
yet, I'll try once more:

Subject: [OT] Speaking of Licensing
Mail-Followup-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi all

All this talk about the different license schemes lately, has me
wondering...

What do I do with my blinder.lrp (it's getting closer to
releaseability)... licensing-wise?

The majority of the code is written by myself. But there *are* snippets of
code here and there (mainly the C-parts) where I've basically cut/pasted
and slightly modified examples I've found around the web...

I'm not exactly sure if any *code* still survives, but in any case I've
been looking heavily at some of the viewlogs etc. cgi-scripts that come
with the weblet/bering-1rc2...

I'll track down and ask the people who published aforementioned
C-snippets, but what are my options/obligations in general?

Does anyone have any good links on the subject?

Personally I'd be only happy to see people using this thingie, but I
would prolly be pretty upset if someone were to grab the code and
advertise it as theirs... (not that I imagine anyone would *want* to do
that since it's all still pretty sloppy/ugly anyway)

I know this is slightly off-topic, but this is the only developer list
I'm subscribed to, and as such I see this as my best bet at finding out
about this...

If this is inappropriate, please don't hesitate to let me know,
alternatively reply by PM.

TIA
Jon Clausen

P.s: I've now gotten a bit further with both the system itself, *and*
the website: http://bund.dk/blinder/ if anyone's curious :)

IMHO, writing code is a lot like writing books.  Everyone copies
everyone else's ideas, but you need to stay away from actually
plagerizing something.  Of course, trying to define exactly how much
modification makes something entirely yours vs. a modified version of
another author's code (or story, or whatever) is a pretty blurry line...

> Does anyone have any good links on the subject?

Saddly, no.  Please share with the list if you find some good
references.

Most of the open-source licenses are pretty strong about continuing to
credit previous authors (one of the biggest sins in the open-source
world is to deny credit to someone whose work you have built on).  I
doubt you found any major pieces of code that are reproduced in your new
blind application (ie your work is basically original, not derrived), so
you probably don't have to worry too much about licensing, but it would
still maybe be nice if you included references to some of the material
you used as references.

Of course, if a big chunk of your code is lifted from somewhere, you
will definately need to acknowledge that fact, and consider any
licensing implications.

BTW:  I consider the weblet code (cgi-bin scripts) to be GPL'd, although
there is no license specified.  I guess I haven't worried about it too
much because:

- Adding licensing notices and author credits takes space, and I was
trying to make everything as small as possible

- I'm not particularly worried about recieving ongoing credit for the
cgi-bin stuff...it wasn't that much work.

- The shell-script stuff is pretty much open-source anyway...it's kind
of hard to release a "closed-source" shell script :-)

NOTE: There *IS* a GPL notification at the start of sh-httpd, it was a
bit more work :)

CVS doesn't sync repositories. Either you use your local one or the one
on SF.

This is one method, but you'll lose your history doing it this way.

Is there some way to *transfer* a cvs module from my own cvs to
sourceforge/leaf cvs?

I have created a cvs environment for my own development.  Since I
already have [many of] my packages situated as local cvs modules, it
would be most convenient if there is some way to move modules from cvs_A
to cvs_B.

Or, need I *export* a module from my own cvs prior to importing it into

We have no modules defined at this time. If you would like a module

I would need to see the commands you typed in to understand the lock
file problem. It may have something to do with a prior command leaving
your tree in an unstable state.

Yes. It will not remove directories. Again, I'm unsure. Would you post
the commands you used?

Re: [Leaf-devel] cvs commit directory structure ???

2002-07-16 Thread Michael D. Schleif


I now believe that all of my cvs study led me to conclude that I was
creating and modifying ``modules''; but, modules can only exist at the
top level under CVSROOT.  Therefore, you are probably correct that cvs
import is the solution here.

In an effort to correct my miscreant behaviour, I tried using cvs
remove.  Under some conditions, cvs remove works as expected.  However,
see failed transaction, at end, to see problems with inability to
generate locked files.

Are there limitations to cvs remove?  What is the cause of the lock
problem?

Yes, have somebody purge/delete/remove devel/helices/ntpclnt and
everything below that.

Michael,
I looked at your commit messages, and I think I understand what you were
trying to accomplish. Here is a sequence that I believe would have
worked.

>From a directory out side of your checked out cvs tree (devel/helices).
Create the directory hierarchy that you wish to add to our repository.
Then from inside the root of this new hierarchy execute:

$ cvs -d:ext:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/leaf import \
-I ! "devel/helices/ntpclnt" vendor start

Note: naming conventions aren't enforced on imports.

Note: this command will not work now, as there is already a
directory with that name in our repository.

Would you like me to open a SF support request, and have them clean your
devel/helices tree out? You can start fresh that way.

Michael,
You need to use "import" to add a directory of files. You can use "add"
to make new directories.

Where in our repository are you trying to commit/add/import files?

This was explained recently.
