Overview

The Pubcookie CVS source code repository is available via anonymous CVS or via ssh to core developers. For a quick looksee or an instant diff, ViewCVS web-based interface is also available.

Anonymous CVS Access

Anonymous CVS access is available via pserver. To check out the current source tree (using Bourne shell):

1. Set your CVSROOT environment variable to our pserver:

   $ export CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous@webiso-cvs.cac.washington.edu:/usr/local/cvsroot

   Note: there is *no* trailing slash on CVSROOT. This is important.

2. Now log in::

   $ cvs login (Logging in to anonymous@webiso-cvs.cac.washington.edu) cvs password:

   The anoncvs password is "anonymous" (without quotation marks).

3. Issue the CVs checkout command:

   $ cvs checkout webiso

   A working copy of the source tree will be copied to your system, into a new subdirectory called "webiso" in the current working directory. This is your local copy of the source tree.

Core Developer Access

Core developers can checkout and checkin files via ssh. To check out the current source tree (using Bourne shell):

1. Set your CVS_RSH and CVSROOT environment variables to use ssh as your "external" connection method:

   $ export CVS_RSH=ssh $ export CVSROOT=:ext:user@webiso-cvs.cac.washington.edu:/usr/local/cvsroot

   Substitute "user" with your UW NetID.

2. To check out the current development tree:

   $ cvs checkout webiso

   Note: A working copy of the source tree will be copied to your system, into a new subdirectory called "webiso" in the current working directory. This is your local copy of the source tree.

Getting Updates

1. Change directory to your local copy of the source tree:

   $ cd /usr/local/src

   Note: This directory should contain the "webiso" directory created when you checked out the current source tree (see above).

2. Either log in anonymously or set your environment for core-developer access.

3. Update your local tree:

   $ cvs update -dP webiso

Making Diffs

1. Change the working directory to where your local copy of the source tree resides:

   $ cd /usr/local/src

   Note: This directory should contain the "webiso" directory created when you checked out the current source tree (see above).

2. Either log in anonymously or set your environment for core-developer access.

3. Update your local tree:

   $ cvs update -dP webiso

   The anoncvs password is "anonymous" (without quotation marks).

4. Generate the diff:

   $ cvs diff -u webiso
