Before doing anything I'd recommend you make a `revision library' -- it isn't necessary, but it makes life much nicer (it's basically a cache for revisions). You can do that like: $ mkdir -p $SOME_PATH/arch/revlib $ tla my-revision-library $SOME_PATH/arch/revlib $ tla library-config --greedy --sparse $SOME_PATH/arch/revlib [where $SOME_PATH/arch/revlib is an arbitrary directory name] Optionally, you can setup gnupg to check library signatures, but you can skip that for now. Then you get the tree; emacs is big so this will take a long time unless you have a fast connection: $ cd $MY_SRC_DIR $ tla get miles@gnu.org--gnu-2004/emacs--cvs-trunk--0 emacs [That will put emacs into $MY_SRC_DIR/emacs] > Is that a read-only access, or read-write? It's read-only. If you want read-write access, you'd need ssh access to fencepost, but you could probably use port 443 on fp-ssh.gnu.org for that (that's what I use from work). I've never done R/W access for anyone else, so it would take some time to work out what to do, but it might be an interesting experiment -- I'd like for it to be possible for others to commit via arch. [An alternative which is slightly more `archy' would be for you to set up your own archive with your own branch of emacs, arrange for it to be anonymously accessible, and then periodically ask for it to be merged into the cvs-synchronized branch -- ideally that would via some sort of automatic mechanism e.g. a mail daemon, but of course that requires more infrastructure.] > Is the branch synchronized with the CVS trunk at given intervals, or > continuously (via a script or whatever)? It's synchronized via a script that I run manually, but I run it pretty often (every time I log into fencepost mostly) as it's just one command. -Miles -- Freedom's just another word, for nothing left to lose --Janis Joplin
