Hello,

After some feedback on previous patches and some adjustments, I think the
CVSMode for csup project have come to a place where a wider testing audience
is needed, and I would like to make this a call for review and a HEADSUP to
allow willing reviewers and eventual protesters to give their opinion before
merging this to HEAD. A few things about the current state of CVSMode:

- Complete CVS mode (mirror mode) is supported, allowing the whole CVS
  repository to be fetched by csup.
- rsync fetch supported if not explicitly not wanted by user or not support=
ed
  by server.
- Support using the status file to speed up detailing of files. This means =
no
  bigger inpact on files that are up to date.

For the state of the code itself, I have went over it a couple of times the
last couple of days, fixing style issues and a few differences between cvsup
and csup. One important thing to note is that the impact on the existing cs=
up
operation is _minimal_, so that the risk of introducing bugs to the normal
csup operation is very small, and because of this I see no problems with
committing the current version. If you find any issues, please e-mail me, a=
nd
I will look at it.

So, for those of you wanting to test, please do so now. If people are okay
with this, I would like to merge it by the end of the week/early next week.

A patch can be found here: http://people.freebsd.org/~lulf/csup_cvsmode.diff
or you can just do a checkout of projects/csup_cvsmode
