To access TOPL CVS repository, you need an account on PATH server with group
membership topl. You need to be affiliated with UC
Berkeley or be a TOPL member for that.
Once you have such account, please, follow the steps
below.
- Download and install Tortoise CVS. After the
installation is complete, you will be asked to reboot.
After rebooting, start Windows Explorer and go to the
folder where you wish to place the TOPL files.
Right-click in your Explorer window and in the pop-up
menu choose CVS Checkout... - this brings
up window with a setup form.
Fill in the form as follows:
- Protocol: Secure shell (:ext:); if you
fail to connect, try Secure shell
(:ssh:)
- Server: path.berkeley.edu
- Port: leave blank
- Repository folder: /home/topl/cvsroot
- User name: your login on PATH server
- Module: topl2 ; if the list is empty,
click on Fetch list...
After you fill in the setup form, click OK. CVS will ask
you for password - it is the password for your account on PATH server. After you provide
correct password, CVS will download the latest version of
the topl2
directory with related files from the repository.
At this point, every time you wish to update your topl2 directory
to get the latest changes, right-click on the topl2 folder and
choose CVS Update.
If you prefer to use good old command line interface
instead of Tortoise CVS, you will require the commands listed
below.
- To check out topl2
directory:
cvs -d
:ext:path.berkeley.edu:/home/topl/cvsroot co
topl2
- To update topl2 directory,
go to that directory and type:
cvs update -d -P
