Jeff Hsu asked me yesterday... it seems I forgot to mention that the repository is ready... :-] The development is intended to be done on the LITE2 branch. (just like RELENG_2_1_0). I have already done one merge to -current, the cvsup approach seems to be working.. So, assuming you sup it to your local machine to /home/lite2 (same as on freefall), you can: cvs -d /home/lite2 checkout -P -r LITE2 sys cvs -d /home/lite2 update -d -P -r LITE2 /home/lite2 is recorded in CVS/Root, so if your cwd is inside the checked out tree, things like 'cvs diff', 'cvs log' etc should automatically refer to the lite2 tree, overriding any $CVSROOT setting. If you are not running a -current cvs-1.8.1, you may be safer to set $CVSROOT to /home/lite2 (assuming that on your local machine). I strongly discourage using sup to fetch the source from freefall, as the entire lite2 tree gets regular tag changes, and sup refetches the entire source each time. cvsup does the right thing. The sup/cvsup "release" is "lite2". So, you use in your supfile: src-sys release=lite2 ..... (the rest same as src-sys for release=cvs) The repository on freefall is /home/lite2. If you have the same repository on both freefall and your local machine, you can do remote commits, but it may be safer to stick with 'cvs diff', copy-to-freefall, and commit on freefall. If you have a good link to freefall, you may like to try out using $CVSROOT = yourname@freefall.freebsd.org:/home/lite2 . You need a .rhosts of course, or set up ssh and set $CVS_RSH to "ssh". (ssh uses a RSA based authentication system, or .rhosts if freefall recognises your host's private key. ie: to use .rhosts with ssh, log into freefall and do a 'ssh yourhost.your.domain' so that it saves your host's key in ~/.ssh/known_hosts. Once that is done, ssh will emulate rsh entirely) Any questions? :-) -Peterhome | help
