[openbeos] Re: Problem with anonymous CVS checkout

hm... i'm by no means a fan of cvs... have my own cvs server around here for univeristy tasks but i really hate it...
i'll try out subversion after i overhauled the server (replacing the cranked up Debian installation with a real clean
LFS installation). it looks way better so far. i just can't stand creating fake system users to deal with cvs or having
cvs transmit passwords non-encrypted over the aether... arg!

Hi Roland,

I never used CVS (I mean really _used_, I just do the regular checkouts), so I am by no means an expert. But cvschroot stands for "cvs change root", that means the root directory of the cvs repository on the respective cvs server. The Root files are placed in every subfolder. The script changes this entry recursively in every "Root" file. Otherwise I would have had (correct grammar?) to download the whole repository again.

Bye,
Finn
