Starting off with CTM for the first time ... However, since the trees are many tens of megabytes, you should prefer to start from something already at hand. If you have a RELEASE CD, you can copy or extract an initial source from it. This will save a significant transfer of data. ". Ok i have a release 3.0 and a release 3.3. CD, i unpack all the sources, say from the 3.3 release cd. Then how do i figure out which will be my starting delta? i can figure out the last modification time in the source tree and use deltas from the next day, but i'm not convinced, that this is the right way to do it.
