This directory contains the virgin CVS source on the vendor branch. Do
|
|
not under any circumstances commit new versions onto the mainline, new
|
|
versions or official-patch versions must be imported.
|
|
|
|
To prepare a new cvs dist for import, extract it into a fresh directory;
|
|
then delete the files and directories listed in FREEBSD-Xlist.
|
|
|
|
CVS is imported from its top level directory something like this:
|
|
cvs -n import src/contrib/cvs CVSHOME v<version>
|
|
|
|
The -n option is "don't do anything" so you can see what is about to happen
|
|
first. Remove it when it looks ok.
|
|
|
|
The initial import was done with:
|
|
cvs import src/contrib/cvs CVSHOME v1_11_22
|
|
|
|
When new versions are imported, cvs will give instructions on how to merge
|
|
the local and vendor changes when/if conflicts arise.
|
|
|
|
The developers can be reached at: <devel-cvs@nongnu.org>. Local changes
|
|
that are suitable for public consumption should be submitted for inclusion
|
|
in future releases.

Current local changes:
|
|
- CVS_LOCAL_BRANCH_NUM environment variable support for choosing the
|
|
magic branch number. (for CVSup local-commit support)
|
|
- CVSREADONLYFS environment variable and global option -R to enable
|
|
no-locking readonly mode (eg: cvs repo is a cdrom or mirror)
|
|
- the verify message script can edit the submitted log message.
|
|
- CVSROOT/options file
|
|
- Variable keyword expansion controls including custom keywords.
|
|

|
- Support for "diff -j", allowing tag:date based diffs.
