making rcs work.
================
I love cvs. Its my number 1 source checker in doovie (Sorry I had to 
get technical on ya there, but checker in doovie just cant be explained any
other way! :)

CVS number 1! Ra ra ra!




USING AND TESTING
=================

What you need to do first for all of these!
-------------------------------------------
CVSROOT=cvs@burfrost:/data/cvsroot	# Who where and directory of archive
CVS_RSH=ssh				# use encryption
export CVSROOT CVS_RSH
     or 
setenv CVSROOT cvs@burfrost:/data/cvsroot
setenv CVS_RSH ssh

or using orion:
export CVSROOT=orion:/data/cvsroot	
export CVS_RSH=ssh
  or
setenv CVSROOT orion:/data/cvsroot
setenv CVS_RSH ssh



check OUT a project.
--------------------
cd somewhere/to/put/it			# pick a local directory like 
					# /tmp or ~/src
cvs co test                  		# creates dir "foo"
cd test					# Should be there now :)


to work in other people's updates
---------------------------------
cvs update
# RUN this command periodically to get other people's changes.


editing an existing project file
--------------------------------
vi blah.c		# until you are happy with it.
cvs commit		# to write a new version to the archive

create a new file and add it into the project
---------------------------------------------
# WARNING: NEW FILES MUST BE ADDED OR cvs WONT KEEP TRACK OF THEM!!! WARNING
cvs add blah.c
cvs commit

delete an unneeded file
-----------------------
# When you are sure its not needed any more.. (ie you checked with the other
# coders you are working with!)
rm obsolete.c		# You must delete the file before cvs removing it.
cvs remove obsolete.c
cvs commit


How do I release v2.0 of the code?
----------------------------------
cvs commit -r2.0
cvs update -A



CHECKING IN A WHOLE EXISTING PROJECT
====================================
cd directory/with/test/in/for/example
ls -al test
cvs import test local base		# note: "test" = module name, 
					# "local" = vendor, "base" = revision
					# Will ask you for log comments
# Now you check the project OUT to start using cvs on it.



ADMIN STUFF ON THE SERVER
=========================
compile on orion :)
-------------------
Duh



Make a cvs root directory.
--------------------------
mkdir /sci1/local/cvsroot
ln -s /sci1/local/cvsroot /cvsroot
cvs init
