<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> |

|
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 |
