############################################################################## Here are generic CVS server instructions: (1) Login to the cvs server. Not needed more than once b/c the cvs login will record your cvs password in $HOME/.cvspass. Change "ezk" for your CVS user id. $ cvs -d :pserver:ezk@shekel.mcl.cs.columbia.edu:/proj/bank/cvsroot login CVS password: Type in your password, crypt(3)'ed in /proj/bank/cvsroot/CVSROOT/passwd. (2) Then, check out a fresh copy of 6.1 (experimental) $ cvs -d :pserver:ezk@shekel.mcl.cs.columbia.edu:/proj/bank/cvsroot checkout am-utils Or, to checkout the stable branch: $ cvs -d :pserver:ezk@shekel.mcl.cs.columbia.edu:/proj/bank/cvsroot checkout -r amd-6-0-stable am-utils (3) Then you can do normal edit, commit, update, etc. w/o having to worry about your $CVSROOT or the -d option. ############################################################################## To merge changes from the stable branch into the main (experimental) branch: $ cvs update -j amd-6-0-stable -kk - don't worry about all the files that change; it's probably because of cvs keywords in the sources - after the merge, do a 'cvs update -d' and resolve any conflicts ############################################################################## There are two new mailing lists: amd-maintainers@shekel.mcl.cs.columbia.edu: for Amd maintainers to communicate internally w/o exposure to the greater user community. amd-cvslog@shekel.mcl.cs.columbia.edu: to get cvs log messages. I've used a better (I hope) script for loginfo. It provides different output and can be tweaked as well. ##############################################################################
