[open-beos-printing] Re: Okay, I need a CVS tutorial :-(

Hi Philippe,

you should have write access, as you are a member of open-beos at 
sourceforge.net

Somewhere on SF there is docu how to use cvs for the first time...
http://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=765&group_id=1
http://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=763&group_id=1

AFAIK you have to log in to the SF shell and have to use cvs there for the 
first time, 
otherwise it will not work if you want to use it on your locale machine:

ssh -l phoudoin shell.sf.net

Then you need to check out the print_kit module there:
export CVS_RSH=ssh
export CVSROOT=phoudoin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:/cvsroot/open-beos
cvs -z3 co print_kit

Now you can exit the SF shell and you should be able to check out the module
on your machine.
If you have installed ssh and cvs under BeOS the same three lines from above 
should work.

You have to copy the files/directories you want to add into the checked out 
directory tree and from there you can add them to the cvs repository.

e.g. if you have added a directory and in this a file:
cvs -z3 add directory
cvs -z3 commit   

cd directory
cvs -z3 add file
cvs -z3 commit 

Note if you omit -z3 under BeOS, cvs sometimes does not terminate and you
have to hit control-C.
