I don't think there ever were any.
I have used cvsup, and now ctm, to keep my cvs tree up to date. In order to
get going with ctm, though, I found it necessary to do quite a bit of manual
intervention to sync the tree with the ctm deltas. I cobbled up this script
to help with it, which basically checks the md5 checksums to see if the delta
is even close to where it should be.
To use it, check the date of the files on your CD, then download the deltas that
were made on or just before or after that date. Set the variables in the
script appropriately, then run it with the delta number you want to check.
If files need updating, ctm commands for those files only are echoed into a file
that you can then run with /bin/sh. If not, you get some rather feeble
instructions about what you might try next. Once things are synced and you
have created a .ctm_status file, you can apply the remainder of the deltas
normally.
This script is by no means production quality. It doesn't do any modifications
to the tree by itself, however, so it won't hurt anything to try it.
Watch out for files shown as "does not exist" (other than .ctm_status); there
probably won't be any, but if there are they would need to be specially
handled.
