Hi,
>From the given page >>
Browsing CVS
You can browse the GNU CVS repository via the CVSweb interface.
You can also use the standard GNU CVS utility to obtain anonymous read-only access:
$ cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvs login
Password: [just hit enter]
$
You only need to login once, as CVS will save your password in ~/.cvspass. After that,
you can do any CVS operation, such as:
$ cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvs checkout module
[...]
where module is the name of the CVS module you are interested in.
<<
Here, module would be either hurd or gnumach.
You should look at the documentation on cvs. Either:
% info cvs
or online at:
http://www.gnu.org/manual/cvs-1.9/cvs.html
Regards,
-Neal
