This isn't cvsup's domain, actually, but it is something CVS can
handle itself. You simply set CVS_RSH to ``ssh' and CVSROOT to
``freefall.freebsd.org:/home/ncvs'', then you do your CVS operations
as normal.
I have some shell functions which I use so that I can keep things
checked out relative to my local CVS repository (and obviously many
times faster than using freefall's) up until the point where I want to
commit the changes, then it fools CVS into thinking that the sources
were originally checked out from freefall too:
function do-local-cvs {
setenv CVSROOT /home/ncvs
[ -f CVS/Root ] && echo $CVSROOT > CVS/Root
}
function do-remote-cvs {
setenv CVSROOT freefall.freebsd.org:/home/ncvs
[ -f CVS/Root ] && echo $CVSROOT > CVS/Root
}
function cvscommit {
do-remote-cvs
cvs commit $*
do-local-cvs
}
