Greetings,

topic says it all... and the magic URL is here - http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/wesnoth

This has allowed us (read: Dave) to start using (read: learning) CVS.

You can checkout latest and greatest with: cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anoncvs@subversions.gnu.org:/cvsroot/wesnoth co wesnoth

And to stay up-to-date go to wesnoth dir you checked out from CVS and run: cvs -z3 update -dP

After running an update, you should always run 'make clean' before 'make'

To log in the first time use:
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anoncvs@subversions.gnu.org:/cvsroot/wesnoth login
Then press Enter (no password)

To retrieve current cvs tree:
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anoncvs@subversions.gnu.org:/cvsroot/wesnoth co wesnoth

It will create a wesnoth directory where you are, and download all files.

After when you need to update the tree:
cd wesnoth && cvs -z3 update -dP



For CVS writers:

Add /* $Id$ */ to all text files (especially sources) it will be expanded by cvs to something useful

you can use .cvsignore files to force cvs to ignore some files at commit time:

echo '*.swp' > .cvsignore

Note you need one .cvsignore per directory in tree afaik.

cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anoncvs@subversions.gnu.org:/cvsroot/wesnoth login

I did not need to use login.

After when you need to update the tree:
cd wesnoth && cvs -z3 update -dP

Thanks, fixed my post.

ettin,

Would you please be able to put instructions on how to check out the source from CVS on the web page?

About the CVS...

Would it be possible to set a cron in the CVS server to make a (nightly?) CVS tarball and put it somewhere public?

I would love to checkout CVS (and check in once I start contributing some code) but the place I'm living right now has a ugly proxy that does not let me do anything but telnet/ftp/http out of my computer I'm working on a tunnel thru telnet so I might be able to use other services normally, but I'm afraid that might take a week, and might not even work.

Thanks!

Sorry to resurrect an old topic, but would it be possible to implement aforementioned nightly tarballs? I've tried 5 different sets of instructions for DLing the CVS version but the operation always times out.

I've even tried GUI front-ends, thinking I'm making some silly mistake with the command line, but even then I can never contact the server.

Did you do:

Code: Select all

export CVS_RSH=ssh

...before running cvs checkout|update?

21:08 < miyo> Gafgarion: setenv ?
21:08 < Gafgarion> and from there it times out
21:08 < miyo> Gafgarion: you are using csh?
21:09 < Ayin> export
21:09 < miyo> Gafgarion: or posix shell?
21:09 < Gafgarion> csh
21:09 < miyo> Gafgarion: setenv CVS_RSH ssh
21:09 < Ayin> oh, setenv, then :)
21:10 < miyo> Gafgarion: Feel free to write CSH section in WesnothCVS (Wiki)
21:11 < miyo> Gafgarion: Helps?
21:11 < Gafgarion> hey it worked :) thanks miyo, ill update the wiki page
