Anonymous CVS HOWTO

To check something out of the the CVS repository, use this string:

cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.powertweak.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/<program>

Add one of these commands.

login (do this first -- return for password)
checkout -PAd <program> (get all the files)
co <program> (get all the files -- don't know how this differs -- use cvs -z3 in this case)
update -PAd <program>

Other options:

cvs -z3 -q
diff -u -b -B
update -P -d
checkout -P

For updating you CVS use just cvs update -P -d

Note: if you use .cvsrc with option above just type cvs update (don't know what this means -- but check for .cvsrc.

CVS help file
22 May 2002

There's an MPlayer cvs sort of at http://www2.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/cvs/ -- haven't
tried it.

http://www.sscnet.ucla.edu/comm/steen/grain/Future/Equipment/Linux/kino.html

First you have to log in -- get the project name:

cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.kino.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/kino login

The first time you get the whole thing:

cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.kino.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/kino co kino

cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.libdv.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/libdv co libdv

Afterwards, you just do this little update:

cvs update -P -d

Very elegant -- and you see what's been changed. If the ChangeLog warrants it, build it again.

Installing libdv on 22 May 2002

./bootstrap

I got a " bad interpreter: Permission denied" -- I have no idea what suddenly made this error message go away. Bad news -- it took me an hour to ponder and try things, and in the end I have no idea what the problem was. The solution is to log onto gubbio as root (not su?), run startx, and then use the icon to mount giant. So there's something about that way of mounting that makes the difference in permissions -- I thought it would be a matter of setting permissions in the icon properties, but it's not clear that was the solution. (It turns out you can just say bash ./configure and you're fine -- it's literally not finding /usr/bin.

./configure

Fine.

make

Fine.

make install

Installed in /usr/local/bin -- no problems.

make clean

Tidied up a bit. libdv is installed.

Installation of kino

./autogen.sh

Fine.

./configure

Fine.

make

Fine.

make install

Fine. Installed in /usr/local/bin.

make clean

The CVS kino is installed.
