39     visual frontend to the CVS Repository. It allows you to browse around the
40     repository, viewing any version of a file, and the differences between different
41     versions. There is also a link to download the latest version of any section.</p>

53 tdb 1.1 <h3>Anonymous CVS Access (read-only)</h3>
54    
55     <p>Anyone can access the i-scream CVS repository in
56     anonymous mode read-only mode. The following commands will allow you to check
57     out a portion of the CVS repository. To see what is available it is recommended
58     that you first look at the web frontend.</p>
59     </font>
60    
61     <pre>cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.i-scream.org.uk:/cvs/i-scream login
62     cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.i-scream.org.uk:/cvs/i-scream checkout [module]</pre>
63    
64     <font face="Arial" size="2">
65     <p>When asked for a password, simply press enter.
66     Replace [module] with the section you wish to checkout.</p>
67    
68     <h3>Developer CVS Access (write)</h3>
69    
70     <p>The i-scream development team have full write
71     access to the CVS repository. This is only available over SSH, and can be done
72     on most clients. First the following environment variables need to be set.</p>
73     </font>
74    
75     <pre>CVS_RSH = ssh
76     CVSROOT = :ext:username@cvs.i-scream.org.uk:/cvs/i-scream</pre>
77    
78     <font face="Arial" size="2">
79     <p>You should know your username and password
80     already. After setting these you will need to enter your password each time you
81     use a CVS command. Obviously this is a time wasting event, so an RSA key can be
82     generated and placed on the server for you. Please view the relevant ssh
83     manpages on how to generate an RSA key pair.</p>
84    
85     <p>After this you will be able to work with CVS as
86     normal.</p>
87    
88     <h3>Other means of accessing CVS</h3>
89    
90 tdb 1.3 <p>We currently provide <a href="http://www.polstra.com/projects/freeware/CVSup/"> CVSup</a> access to the repository, either for mirroring or
91     for maintaining an up-to-date local copy. You will probably want to create a
92     supfile that looks something like this;</p>
93     </font>
94    
95     <pre>*default host=cvsup.i-scream.org.uk
96     *default base=/home/user/sup
97     *default prefix=/home/user/i-scream
98     *default release=cvs
99     *default delete use-rel-suffix
100 tdb 1.9 *default compress
101 tdb 1.3 i-scream.source tag=.</pre>
102    
103     <font face="Arial" size="2">
104     <p>The last item in that list is the collection you which to get. The collection
105     &quot;i-scream&quot; is simply the whole repository, and is best used with no
106     tag specified for mirroring. It is most likely that you will want to do that
107     given above, which gets the latest copy of the i-scream source code.</p>
108 tdb 1.6
109     <h3>CVS Statistics</h3>
110    
111 tdb 1.8 <p>There are some statistics available on the cms module of the CVS
112 tdb 1.6 repository, generated by <a href="http://cvsstat.sourceforge.net/">cvsstat</a>,
113     that allow you to see the progress of development. They're not that exciting,
114     but do show when the work was done.</p>
