i-scream CVS Repository

- -

The i-scream CVS Repository contains all code, -documentation, and other files pertaining to all i-scream projects.

- -

All code available in the CVS Repository is -licensed under the GPL.

- -

Web Access

- -

We use viewcvs to provide a -visual frontend to the CVS Repository. It allows you to browse around the -repository, viewing any version of a file, and the differences between different -versions. There is also a link to download the latest version of any section.

- -

http://cvs.i-scream.org/

- -

We also have a facility to allow people to keep tabs on what's changed -recently. The following are available:

- -

Anonymous CVS Access (read-only)

- -

Anyone can access the i-scream CVS repository in -anonymous mode read-only mode. The following commands will allow you to check -out a portion of the CVS repository. To see what is available it is recommended -that you first look at the web frontend.

- -

-cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.i-scream.org:/cvs/i-scream login
-cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.i-scream.org:/cvs/i-scream checkout [module]
-

- -

When asked for a password, simply press enter. -Replace [module] with the section you wish to checkout.

- -

Developer CVS Access (write)

- -

The i-scream development team have full write -access to the CVS repository. This is only available over SSH, and can be done -on most clients. First the following environment variables need to be set.

- -

-CVS_RSH = ssh
-CVSROOT = :ext:username@cvs.i-scream.org:/cvs/i-scream
-

- -

You should know your username and password -already. After setting these you will need to enter your password each time you -use a CVS command. Obviously this is a time wasting event, so an RSA key can be -generated and placed on the server for you. Please view the relevant ssh -manpages on how to generate an RSA key pair.

- -

After this you will be able to work with CVS as -normal.

- -

Other means of accessing CVS

- -

We currently provide CVSup access to -the repository, either for mirroring or for maintaining an up-to-date local -copy. You will probably want to create a supfile that looks something like -this;

- -

-*default host=cvsup.i-scream.org
-*default base=/home/user/sup
-*default prefix=/home/user/i-scream
-*default release=cvs
-*default delete use-rel-suffix
-*default compress
-i-scream.cms.source tag=.
-

- -

The last item in that list is the collection you which to get. The collection -"i-scream" is simply the whole repository, and is best used with no -tag specified for mirroring. It is most likely that you will want to do that -given above, which gets the latest copy of the i-scream source code.

- -

CVS Statistics

- -

There are some statistics available on the cms module of the CVS -repository, generated by cvsplot, -that allow you to see the progress of development. They're not that exciting, -but do show when the work was done.
