<h2>i-scream CVS Repository</h2> |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
<p>The i-scream CVS Repository contains all code, |
| 32 |
documentation, and other stuff pertaining to all i-scream projects.</p> |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
<h3>Web Access</h3> |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
<p>We use <a href="http://viewcvs.sourceforge.net/">viewcvs</a> to provide a |
| 37 |
visual frontend to the CVS Repository. It allows you to browse around the |
| 38 |
repository, viewing any version of a file, and the differences between different |
| 39 |
versions. There is also a link to download the latest version of any section.</p> |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
<p><a href="http://www.i-scream.org.uk/cgi-bin/cvs/viewcvs.cgi">http://www.i-scream.org.uk/cgi-bin/cvs/viewcvs.cgi</a></p> |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
<p>We also have a facility to allow people to keep tabs on what's changed |
| 44 |
recently. The following are available:</p> |
| 45 |
|
| 46 |
<p>Commits today: <a href="http://www.i-scream.org.uk/cgi-bin/cvslog.cgi?period=today">http://www.i-scream.org.uk/cgi-bin/cvslog.cgi?period=today</a><br> |
| 47 |
Commits this week: <a href="http://www.i-scream.org.uk/cgi-bin/cvslog.cgi?period=thisweek">http://www.i-scream.org.uk/cgi-bin/cvslog.cgi?period=thisweek</a><br> |
| 48 |
Commits in the past 7 days: <a href="http://www.i-scream.org.uk/cgi-bin/cvslog.cgi?period=days&days=7">http://www.i-scream.org.uk/cgi-bin/cvslog.cgi?period=days&days=7</a></p> |
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
<p>Finally we have some graphical statistics on the data held in CVS:</p> |
| 51 |
|
| 52 |
<p>[to be added]</p> |
| 53 |
|
| 54 |
<h3>Anonymous CVS Access (read-only)</h3> |
| 55 |
|
| 56 |
<p>Anyone can access the i-scream CVS repository in |
| 57 |
anonymous mode read-only mode. The following commands will allow you to check |
| 58 |
out a portion of the CVS repository. To see what is available it is recommended |
| 59 |
that you first look at the web frontend.</p> |
| 60 |
</font> |
| 61 |
|
| 62 |
<pre>cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.i-scream.org.uk:/cvs/i-scream login |
| 63 |
cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.i-scream.org.uk:/cvs/i-scream checkout [module]</pre> |
| 64 |
|
| 65 |
<font face="Arial" size="2"> |
| 66 |
<p>When asked for a password, simply press enter. |
| 67 |
Replace [module] with the section you wish to checkout.</p> |
| 68 |
|
| 69 |
<h3>Developer CVS Access (write)</h3> |
| 70 |
|
| 71 |
<p>The i-scream development team have full write |
| 72 |
access to the CVS repository. This is only available over SSH, and can be done |
| 73 |
on most clients. First the following environment variables need to be set.</p> |
| 74 |
</font> |
| 75 |
|
| 76 |
<pre>CVS_RSH = ssh |
| 77 |
CVSROOT = :ext:username@cvs.i-scream.org.uk:/cvs/i-scream</pre> |
| 78 |
|
| 79 |
<font face="Arial" size="2"> |
| 80 |
<p>You should know your username and password |
| 81 |
already. After setting these you will need to enter your password each time you |
| 82 |
use a CVS command. Obviously this is a time wasting event, so an RSA key can be |
| 83 |
generated and placed on the server for you. Please view the relevant ssh |
| 84 |
manpages on how to generate an RSA key pair.</p> |
| 85 |
|
| 86 |
<p>After this you will be able to work with CVS as |
| 87 |
normal.</p> |
| 88 |
|
| 89 |
<h3>Other means of accessing CVS</h3> |
| 90 |
|
| 91 |
<p>We currently provide <a href="http://www.polstra.com/projects/freeware/CVSup/"> CVSup</a> access to the repository, either for mirroring or |
| 92 |
for maintaining an up-to-date local copy. You will probably want to create a |
| 93 |
supfile that looks something like this;</p> |
| 94 |
</font> |
| 95 |
|
| 96 |
<pre>*default host=cvsup.i-scream.org.uk |
| 97 |
*default base=/home/user/sup |
| 98 |
*default prefix=/home/user/i-scream |
| 99 |
*default release=cvs |
| 100 |
*default delete use-rel-suffix |
| 101 |
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 |
"i-scream" 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 |
|
| 109 |
<h3>CVS Statistics</h3> |
| 110 |
|
| 111 |
<p>There are some statistics available on the source module of the CVS |
| 112 |
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> |
| 115 |
