The Computer Society hosts a CVSup server for the benefit of the Purdue community and the wider OpenSource community. The machine (sanmateo.csociety.org) is also known as cvsup6.freebsd.org and cvsup.usa.openbsd.org. See our network page for information on the server's specs. To obtain specific portions of these repositories, please see the documentation for the specific tree you're trying to get: This machine supports anoncvs for FreeBSD and OpenBSD. To use that service: export CVSROOT=freebsdanoncvs@anoncvs.freebsd.org:/home/ncvs cvs co module ... export CVSROOT=openbsdanoncvs@anoncvs.csociety.org:/cvs cvs co module ... The machine hosts a CVSync service as well. Available collections are:
Please note that this currently only supports synchronizing of repositories; it does not support checkout mode like CVSup does. However, it is useful because it supports IPv6 and because CVSync is portable; it is more likely to run for those who have OpenBSD on non-i386 machines. Please also note that CVSync is still an experimental tool.
You might ask, when or how often does our server update the repositories?
Here are the answers: In addition to cvsup, anoncvs, and cvsync services, you can also access our FreeBSD and OpenBSD repositories via cvsweb. We've also got some nice modular scripts for managing multiple repository cvsup/anoncvs servers, but currently we can't offer these online yet. This will come later, of course. :) |
