Anonymous CVS-Access

Source code for this package is maintained via CVS. This enables a way to do versioning and provides a history for all files. At any time it is possible to restore an older version. Additionally, lean patches can be applied and reverted.

By using CVS it is possible to provide anonymous access to the repository. To archive this the original archive is copied onto a well-connected server several times a day, on which anonymous access is configured.

Using a web browser the sourcecode can be browsed here.

Log in

Please install the package »cvs« and execute the following command:

cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.infodrom.org:/var/cvs/infodrom login

Simply hit enter when »cvs« asks for a password. From now on you random access to the archive is provided.

Use it

Source code is copied to your own harddisk by issuing the following command:
