OK, I still feel like I'm in over my head.

Are you referring to a specific program? Is there a server component and a software component?

I know about as much as the term CVS...otherwise, I'm a total newbie...

1. decide on a location say "/opt/CVSROOT"
2. "export CVSROOT=/opt/CVSROOT" (optional, or you will need to use the -d
option"
3. edit /etc/profile and put 2. in it
4. "cvs init" to initialize the space
5. go to the directory and do a "cvs import"....you will have to look up the
exact syntax rules.


Then to so some location type "cvs update" and pull whatever you named and
there you have a sandbox.

If you have binary files..pay attention to the extentions and use the -kb
option......or email me and I will send you my file I use to control most of
that without it.

Uh.... ok. Thanks for the help, but I'm still not totally sure what or how to actually get started.

All the time.

Simple rules
1. Shell apps are lame. WinCVS mostly works.
2. Eclipse Team and Reposity "Perspectives" browsing work great
3. Setup the cvsweb.cgi for a nice browser
4. Linux version is great. I support many different company's code
projects using my servers. 5. create a good "wrappers" config file?...the one that tell you to treat
as binary vs ascii.
6. Binary storage is poor.

Does anyone use CVS or other types of source control when developing apps? I'm trying to learn some more about all of this, but I can't figure out the basics well enough to understand where/how to get started!
