The simplest thing to do is to simply add this as an alternative method.
But we were just discussing on #fink a more drastic change: we could
scrap anonymous cvs access altogether, and offer only two access methods,
rsync or ext cvs (the latter for fink developers only).
Any opinions about this? Rob's patch will allow users to configure their
rsync server, so several servers could be set up eventually.
Hi,
I'd suggest that for the first (couple?) of releases of fink with Rob's
patch, the selfupdate-cvs command continue to work as is, but with a
this command has been deprecated, use selfupdate-rsync warning.
Now, to throw in another suggestion, I think that the selfupdate-cvs
command could be removed altogether. Developers are mode than capable of
pulling the tree using cvs, adding packages to it, and testing them in
their fink environment before committing. It would be less convenient,
but it would ensure that we are using the same tools as users, and we
would likely react more quickly to problems if they affect us too :-p
