[Savannah-hackers-public] can I get a tar copy of the ccvs repo?
Hi, I'm working on a side project where I am computing some stats of various version control systems and looking at performance from different points in historical releases. I would like to include cvs in this comparison and it would really help me if I could get a tar copy of the ccvs project from the cvs server. From here: http://cvs.savannah.nongnu.org/viewvc/cvs/ccvs/ Would that be possible? Thanks, -- David Cantrell Red Hat, Inc. | Boston, MA | EST5EDT

Rsync the files out of the cvs repository to your own location. Then extract what you want from there. Get a listing: rsync rsync://cvs.savannah.nongnu.org/sources/cvs/ccvs/ Copy the files: /var/tmp$ rsync -a --info=progress2 rsync://cvs.savannah.nongnu.org/sources/cvs/ccvs . 70,693,319 100%2.16MB/s0:00:31 (xfr#1578, to-chk=0/1688) $ du -sh ccvs 72M ccvs If that isn't what you are asking then let us know. Hope that helps! Bob
