I've installed the cvsupd-mirror port, so I now have around 1.5Gb of CVS data in /usr/repo. I was wondering if there was a way to access this as a CVS repository? What I'm really after is a way to read commit messages/diffs from it - primarily for RELENG_4 (it would be nice to see what's changed in a particular file after seeing a commit after a cvsup, without having to access the freebsd website) I'm unsure as to whether a mirror needs something else to work as a cvs server (cvsd?), and most of the docs I've found are biased towards either CVS-based or CVSUp-based. So I thought I'd as you guys, since you've probably got experience in this - I can do without the mirror, but I'd really like a local repository (and some way of keeping it fresh preferably) Is this even possible?
