CVS update

Hi,

I'm not a specialist of CVS, but I tried to update my version of Wesnoth with CVS, I previously could do it for version 0.5.0, but yesterday, nothing was updated.
As normally, the CVS source are always up to date, my source should have been updated to 0.5.1 (at least).

Is there a special command to execute?

normally you just execute,

Code: Select all

cvs update

from the directory you downloaded into.

the version after update is still .5, so I can't try the multiplayer thing (I did 'make clean' first)

One thing to watch out for is syncing to specific releases (tags). So if you sync'd to 0.5.0 when that was released, then as 0.5.0 hasn't changed since then updates will not match the cvs. You either need to reinitialise or switch to the MAIN branch.

Hi,

How to resync CVS ?

I think something like:

cvs update -r HEAD

should do it. I'm no cvs expert, but I'm sure someone with more knowledge will correct this if it is wrong

Are the CVS server running?
cvs [update aborted]: connect to subversions.gnu.org(199.232.41.2):2401 failed: Connection timed out

No they are not running. Savannah was compromised, and has been taken down until they can secure it.

We don't know how long it will be, but we are offering source snapshots in the meantime.
