<ulink url="http://www.cvshome.org/">CVS</ulink> (Concurrent
|
|
Versions System) is the leading source code control system in
|
|
the freeware community. It manages source code of projects,
|
|
keeps a history of changes to the source files and improves
|
|
conflict management when two or more developers work on the same
|
|
code part. Another major benefit of CVS is that it's very easy
|
|
to update a project to the latest version. CVS features
|
|
flexible branching, intelligent merging, high quality <ulink
|
|
url="http://www.loria.fr/~molli/cvs/doc/cvs_toc.html">documentation</ulink>
|
|
and client/server access with a wide choice of <ulink

<para>

Current Wine sources are available via anonymous client/server
|
|
CVS. You will need CVS 1.9 or above. If you are coming from
|
|
behind a firewall, you will either need a hole in the firewall
|
|
for the CVS port (2401) or use <ulink
|
|
url="http://www.cyclic.com/cvs/d ev-net.html">SOCKS</ulink>.

<title>CVS installation check</title>
|
|
<para>
|
|
First you need to make sure that you have <command>cvs</command>
|
|
installed.
|
|
To check whether this is the case, please run:
|
|
</para>
|
|
<screen>
|
|
<prompt>$ </><userinput>cvs</>
|
|
</screen>
|
|
<para>
|
|
If this was successful, then you should have gotten a nice CVS
|
|
"Usage" help output. Otherwise (e.g. an error "cvs: command not
|
|
found") you still need to install a CVS package for your
|
|
particular operating system, similar to the instructions given
|
|
in the Wine User Guide chapters for getting and installing a
|
|
Wine package on various systems.

<title>Configuring Wine-specific CVS settings</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
First, you should do a
|
|
</para>
|
|
<screen>
|
|
<prompt>$ </><userinput>touch ~/.cvspass</>
|
|
</screen>
|
|
<para>
|
|
to create or update the file <filename>.cvspass</filename> in
|
|
your home directory, since CVS needs this file (for password
|
|
and login management) and will complain loudly if it doesn't exist.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
Second, we need to create the file
|
|
<filename>.cvsrc</filename> in your home directory
|
|
containing the CVS configuration settings needed for a valid
|
|
Wine CVS setup (use CVS compression, properly update file and
|
|
directory information, ...).
|
|
The content of this file should look like the following:
|
|
<programlisting>
|
|
cvs -z 3
|
|
update -PAd
|
|
diff -u
|
|
checkout -P
|
|
</programlisting>
|
|
Create the file with an editor of your choice, either by running
|
|
<screen>
|
|
<prompt>$ </><userinput><editor> ~/.cvsrc</>
|
|
</screen>
|
|
, where <editor> is the editor you want to use (e.g.
|
|
<command>joe</command>, <command>ae</command>,
|
|
<command>vi</command>),
|
|
or by creating the file <filename>.cvsrc</filename> in your
|
|
home directory with your favourite graphical editor like nedit, kedit,
|
|
gedit or others.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
<command>-z</command> sets the compression level (Levels higher
|
|
than 3 will probably not result in faster downloading unless you
|
|
have a fast machine and a slow network connection).
|
|
<command>-Pd</command> will delete empty directories and create
|
|
newly added ones. <command>-A</command> will reset any previous
|
|
tag in order to get the latest version in the tree.
|
|
<command>-u</command> will create the easiest to read
|
|
patches. Please do not submit patches with <command>diff -w</command>.
|
|
</para>

<title>Downloading the Wine CVS tree</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
Once CVS is installed and the Wine specific CVS
|
|
configuration is done, you can now do a login on our CVS
|
|
server and checkout (download) the Wine source code.
|
|
First, let's do the server login:
|
|
</para>
|
|
<screen>
|
|
<prompt>$ </><userinput>cvs -d :pserver:cvs@cvs.winehq.com:/home/wine login</>
|
|
</screen>
|
|
<para>
|
|
If <command>cvs</command> successfully connects to the CVS server,
|
|
then you will get a "CVS password:" prompt.
|
|
Simply enter "cvs" as the password (the password is
|
|
<emphasis>case sensitive</emphasis>: no capital letters!).
|
|
If you want to use one of the mirror servers for Wine CVS
|
|
download, please refer to the section <link
|
|
linkend="cvs-mirrors">Wine CVS mirror servers</link>.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
After login, we are able to download the Wine source code tree.
|
|
Please make sure that you are in the directory that you want
|
|
to have the Wine source code in (the Wine source code will
|
|
use the subdirectory <filename>wine/</filename> in this
|
|
directory, since the subdirectory is named after the CVS module
|
|
that we want to check out). We assume that your current directory
|
|
might be your user's home directory.
|
|
To download the Wine tree into the subdirectory <filename>wine/</filename>, run:
|
|
</para>
|
|
<screen>
|
|
<prompt>$ </><userinput>cvs -d :pserver:cvs@cvs.winehq.com:/home/wine checkout wine</>
|
|
</screen>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Downloading the CVS tree might take a while (some minutes
|
|
to few hours), depending on your connection speed.
|
|
Once the download is finished, you should keep a note of
|
|
which directory the newly downloaded
|
|
<filename>wine/</filename> directory is in, by running
|
|
<command>pwd</command> (Print Working Directory):
|
|
</para>
|
|
<screen>
|
|
<prompt>$ </><userinput>pwd</>
|
|
</screen>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Later, you will be able to change to this directory by
|
|
running:
|
|
</para>
|
|
<screen>
|
|
<prompt>$ </><userinput>cd <replaceable><some_dir></></>
|
|
</screen>
|
|
<para>
|
|
, where <some_dir> is the directory that
|
|
<command>pwd</command> gave you.
|
|
By running
|
|
</para>
|
|
<screen>
|
|
<prompt>$ </><userinput>cd wine</>
|
|
</screen>
|
|
<para>
|
|
, you can now change to the directory of the Wine CVS tree
|
|
you just downloaded.

<para>
|

Wine's CVS tree is mirrored at several places arround the world
|
|
to make sure that the source is easily accessible. Note that not
|
|
all servers have all repositories available, but all have at
|
|
least the Wine source.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
CVS access is granted through CVS' "pserver"
|
|
authentication. You should set
|
|
your <command>CVSROOT</command> environment variable to point to one of
|
|
the servers using this format:
|
|
</para>
|
|
<screen>
|
|
CVSROOT=:pserver:<Username>@<CVS Server>:<Server root>
|
|
</screen>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Alternatively, you can use the -d parameter of
|
|
<command>cvs</command> instead.
|
|
Substitude the applicable fields from the table below.

Just do a traceroute and a ping on all servers below to find out

<title>Converting a Wine FTP download to a CVS tree</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
Getting the entire Wine source tree via
|
|
CVS is pretty slow, especially compared to getting Wine from an
|
|
FTP mirror near you. It's possible to convert a Wine tarball to a CVS
|
|
sandbox, just like you would get by checking out the entire source
|
|
via CVS. Here's how to do it:
|
|
</para>
|
|
<itemizedlist>
|
|
<listitem>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Get the latest Wine snapshot: Wine-<replaceable>YYMMDD</replaceable>.tar.gz
|
|
</para>
|
|
</listitem>
|
|
<listitem>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Get wine-cvsdirs-<replaceable>YYMMDD</replaceable>.tar.gz from <ulink url="ftp://ftp.winehq.com/pub/wine/">ftp://ftp.winehq.com/pub/wine</ulink>
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Use an FTP client rather than a web browser, and be sure to turn off passive mode, otherwise the fetch will hang.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
e.g.:
|
|
</para>
|
|
<screen>
|
|
ftp ftp.winehq.com
|
|
cd pub/wine
|
|
passive off
|
|
ls
|
|
</screen>
|
|
</listitem>
|
|
<listitem>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Untar them on top of each other:
|
|
</para>
|
|
<screen>
|
|
tar xzf Wine-<replaceable>YYYYMMDD</replaceable>.tar.gz
|
|
mv wine-<replaceable>YYYYMMDD</replaceable> wine
|
|
tar xzf wine-cvsdirs-<replaceable>YYYYMMDD</replaceable>.tar.gz
|
|
</screen>
|
|
</listitem>
|
|
<listitem>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Update from main tree: login as above, then do
|
|
</para>
|
|
<screen>
|
|
cd wine
|
|
cvs update -PAd
|
|
</screen>
|
|
</listitem>
|
|
</itemizedlist>
|
|
<para>
|
|
You will now be completely up to date.
