How do I specify what release I want? As I'm using 3.2-STABLE. I assume since I'm downloading everything, that both 2.2.8, 3.2, and 4.x are all in there somewhere. or am I wrong? -Chris -----Original Message----- From: Christian Weisgerber [mailto:naddy@mips.rhein-neckar.de] Sent: Saturday, June 19, 1999 8:19 PM To: cjm2@earthling.net Subject: Re: CVS repository for 'make world'?

That's certainly a possibility. Or you simply use cvs(1) to check out a working copy. - cd /usr - Remove src - Check out initial working copy: cvs -R -q -d /path/to/repository get src - Later, to update the source tree: cvs -R -q -d /path/to/repository up -PAd src You can put the /path/to/repository in the CVSROOT environment variable to save typing. -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber naddy@mips.rhein-neckar.de LinuxTag '99 - 26./27.
