Dear fellow developers,
for your convenience, here's a micro CVS HowTo:
- initial checkout the head of the main/development branch: cvs -d<user>@cvs.sf.net:/cvsroot/monetdb co -P MonetDB
- initial checkout the head of a release branch: cvs -d<user>@cvs.sf.net:/cvsroot/monetdb co -P -rMonetDB_4-3-16 MonetDB
- tranforming a check-out main/development branch into a checked-out release branch: cvs up -dP -rMonetDB_4-3-16
- tranforming a check-out release branch into a checked-out main/development branch: cvs up -dP -A
- updating a check-out main/development or release branch: cvs up -dP
- checking, whether your current check-out it a main/development or release branch: cat CVS/Tag main/development branch: CVS/Tag does not exist release branch: CVS/Tag contains branch name/tag
- checking you own changes (preferably prior to checkin): cvs diff
