CVS changes

[JeffM]

Sourceforge is now implementing there new CVS system.

With this new system we will have to make some small changes to how we access CVS.

The new system is much more robust then the old one, and should offer a much higher quality of service for all users.

1) the cvs server hostname for the projcet as changed. The new host is bzflag.cvs.sourceforge.net. The old "cvs.sourceforge.net" will no longer get you to the right cvs server ( there is more then one now ).

2) You will have to check out your code again before you can update. The new host name means that your existing local copies are not linked to the right server. So just check out again.

3) Anon cvs is back and synced on the new system, and is synced every 2 hours. This is much faster then the older system.

You don't actually need to do a full checkout,
you can simply update the CVS/Root files to
point to the new server:

This bit of code did the trick for my dirs:

Code: Select all

for i in `find . -name Root`; do
  sed s/cvs/bzflag.cvs/ < $i > $i.tmp;
  mv $i.tmp $i;
done

Ok, to get CVS on the mac open the terminal, get into the right directory with 'cd' like this:

Code: Select all

cd ~/cvs/bzflag

if you want to get to the dir named 'bzflag' within one named 'cvs'.

Now login to the CVS repository as anonymous with:

Code: Select all

cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.bzflag.org:/cvsroot/bzflag login

And download the source...
For the 2.0.x branch use:

Code: Select all

cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.bzflag.org:/cvsroot/bzflag co -P -r v2_0branch bzflag

For the 2.1.x branch use:

Code: Select all

cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.bzflag.org:/cvsroot/bzflag co -P bzflag

And now do as you normally would to compile:
cd into the dir:

Code: Select all

cd ~/cvs/bzflag/

run:

Code: Select all

./autogen.sh

then:

Code: Select all

./configure

and finally:

Code: Select all

make

If you had "cvs.bzflag.org" as you old cvs host, try this if trepan's script doesn't work for you:

Code: Select all

find -name Root -exec sed -i s/@.*:\\//@bzflag.cvs.sourceforge.net:\\//g {} \;

It should be safe to run more than once.
