If you want access to all releases, or even to just two, you're best off CVSupping the CVS repository. In a nutshell, you omit the "tag" and "date" statements in the cvsupfile, and point "prefix" to someplace like "/home/ncvs" -- NOT to your actual source tree. For more information, RTFM cvsup(1), look at the examples in "/usr/share/examples/cvsup/", and read the CVSup FAQ, which is at . And then learn how to use CVS.
