Your best bet is to just cvsup the entire CVS repository. There should be example cvsup files for this in /usr/share/examples/cvsup/. For example, I store my local copy of the repo on /usr/cvs on my machine. I can then set CVSROOT to /usr/cvs and then use make release to build a release. > Can somone give me the actual proceduire from doing a make release?
