1.1 brian 33:
34: <p>
35: <b>CVSup</b> is a software package for distributing and updating source
1.39 horacio 36: trees from a master <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=cvs&sektion=1">cvs(1)</a> repository on a remote server host. The OpenBSD
1.1 brian 37: sources are maintained in a CVS repository on a central development machine
38: in Canada. With CVSup, OpenBSD users can easily keep their own source trees
39: up to date.
40: </p>
41:
42: <p>
43: <b>CVSup</b> uses the so-called pull model of updating. Under the pull
44: model, each client asks the server for updates, if and when they are
45: wanted. The server waits passively for update requests from its clients.
46: Thus all updates are instigated by the client. The server never sends
47: unsolicited updates. Users must either run the <b>CVSup</b> client
1.39 horacio 48: manually to get an update, or they must set up a <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=cron&sektion=8">cron(8)</a> job to run it
1.1 brian 49: automatically on a regular basis.
50: </p>
51:
52: <p>
53: The term <b>CVSup</b>, capitalized just so, refers to the entire software
54: package. Its main components are the client <tt>cvsup</tt> which runs on
55: each user's machine, and the server <tt>cvsupd</tt> which runs at each of
56: the OpenBSD CVSup mirror sites.
57: </p>
58:
59: <p>
60: <b>CVSup</b> is intended to be both faster and more flexible than
1.21 naddy 61: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=sup&sektion=1&format=html">sup(1)</a>, CVSup's predecessor.
1.1 brian 62: </p>
63:
64: <p>
1.21 naddy 65: The OpenBSD Project currently has five main source repositories:
1.1 brian 66: </p>
67:
68: <ul>
1.9 naddy 69: <li><b>src</b> - Houses all source code for the OpenBSD Operating System.</li>
70: <li><b>ports</b> - Houses the <a href="./ports.html">OpenBSD Ports</a>.</li>
71: <li><b>www</b> - Houses all OpenBSD web pages. (Including this one).</li>
72: <li><b>x11</b> - Houses OpenBSD's adaptation of the
1.20 brian 73: <a href="http://www.XFree86.org/">XFree86-3</a> software project.</li>
74: <li><b>xf4</b> - Houses OpenBSD's adaptation of the
75: <a href="http://www.XFree86.org/">XFree86-4</a> software project.</li>

1.21 naddy 78: <h3><a name="CVS"><font color="#0000e0">What Is CVS?</font></a></h3>
1.1 brian 79:
80: <p>
81: CVS is the source code control system used to manage the OpenBSD source
1.7 brian 82: tree. It is described in more detail <a href="anoncvs.html#CVS">here</a>.

1.1 brian 88:

90: The latest version of CVSup is available at
1.7 brian 91: <a href="http://www.polstra.com/projects/freeware/CVSup/">

94:
95: <p>
1.48 ! brian 96: CVSup is difficult to compile and install because it is written in Modula3.
! 97: While there are open source Modula3 environments available, compiling and
! 98: installing them is a difficult task (especially for unsupported platforms).
! 99: There is a port of Modula3 for i386 architecture only (<tt>lang/pm3</tt>).
! 100: Therefore, CVSup is only currently available for i386.

1.1 brian 104: The following configuration file might be used:
105: </p>
106:
107: <pre>
108: # Defaults that apply to all the collections
109: *default release=cvs
110: *default delete use-rel-suffix
111: *default umask=002
1.41 brad 112: *default host=cvsup.uk.openbsd.org
1.1 brian 113: *default base=/cvs
114: *default prefix=/cvs
115:
116: # If your network link is a T1 or faster, comment out the following line.
117: *default compress
118:
119: OpenBSD-all
120: #OpenBSD-src
121: #OpenBSD-www
122: #OpenBSD-ports
123: #OpenBSD-x11
1.20 brian 124: #OpenBSD-xf4
1.1 brian 125: </pre>
126:
127: <p>
128: This directs cvsup to refresh all OpenBSD distributions from
1.41 brad 129: <b>cvsup.uk.openbsd.org</b> with a <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=umask&sektion=2">umask(2)</a> that permits group write
1.1 brian 130: permission to the local repository.
131: </p>
132:
133: <p>
134: Assuming this file is saved as <tt>cvs-supfile</tt>, the
1.39 horacio 135: following command would be used to invoke the cvsup GUI:
1.9 naddy 136: </p>
1.1 brian 137: <pre>
138: cvsup cvs-supfile
139: </pre>
1.9 naddy 140: <p>
1.1 brian 141: whereas for batch mode, the following might be used:
1.9 naddy 142: </p>
1.1 brian 143: <pre>
144: cvsup -g -L 2 cvs-supfile
145: </pre>

1.2 brian 149: </a></h3>
1.1 brian 150:
151: <p>
1.7 brian 152: It is now simple to check out any one of the CVSup'ed repositories.
153: For Korn/Bourne shells:
1.9 naddy 154: </p>
1.7 brian 155: <pre>
156: # cd /usr
157: # CVSROOT=/cvs cvs checkout src
158: </pre>
159: <p>
160: For csh and its derivatives:
1.9 naddy 161: </p>
1.7 brian 162: <pre>
163: # cd /usr
164: # setenv CVSROOT /cvs
165: # cvs checkout src
166: </pre>
1.1 brian 167:
168: <p>
1.7 brian 169: The above will check out the most current sources. Many of you will only
1.1 brian 170: want the release sources, especially if you are patching your system. To
171: checkout release sources you must specify a tag along with your command.
172: For example:
173: </p>
1.7 brian 174: <pre>
175: # cd /usr
1.40 jufi 176: # cvs checkout -rOPENBSD_2_9 src
1.7 brian 177: </pre>
178: <p>
1.40 jufi 179: Or <tt>OPENBSD_2_8</tt> for 2.8, etc.
1.7 brian 180: </p>
181:
1.21 naddy 182: <h3><a name="checkout"><font color="#0000e0">Running CVSup in
1.7 brian 183: Checkout Mode</font></a></h3>
1.1 brian 184:
185: <p>
1.7 brian 186: As an alternative to getting the repository and using CVS, you can
187: run CVSup in checkout mode by adding a <tt>tag</tt> or <tt>date</tt>
188: keyword to your supfile, either as a <tt>*default</tt> or as an
189: option to a collection. In particular, you can use this to efficiently
190: update the source and ports trees shipped on the <a
191: href="orders.html">CDROMs</a>.
1.1 brian 192: </p>
1.7 brian 193: <p>
194: The following supfile could be used to update your ports tree:
195: </p>
196: <pre>
197: # Defaults that apply to all the collections
198: *default host=cvsup.uk.openbsd.org
199: *default base=/var
200: *default prefix=/usr
201: *default release=cvs
202: *default delete use-rel-suffix compress
203:
204: # Ports Collection.
205: OpenBSD-ports tag=.
206: </pre>
207: <p>
208: Any CVS symbolic tag can be used. A single period "." means HEAD,
209: i.e. the newest revision of all files in the main branch. Take care
210: to specify an existing tag, as CVSup cannot distinguish valid from
211: invalid tags, and an attempt to synchronize an existing source tree
212: to an invalid tag will remove all files.
213: </p>
214: <p>
215: Alternatively, use the keyword <tt>date=[cc.]yy.mm.dd.hh.mm.ss</tt>
216: to select a revision by date. All 17 or 19 characters must be
217: given as shown. For the years 2000 and beyond, specify the century
218: <var>cc</var>. For earlier years, specify only the last two digits
219: <var>yy</var>. You may also combine the <tt>tag</tt> and <tt>date</tt>
220: keywords.

1.1 brian 637: <strong>IMPORTANT NOTE:</strong>
638: There are a few issues relating to cryptographic software that everyone
639: should be aware of:
1.9 naddy 640: </p>
1.1 brian 641: <ul>
1.9 naddy 642: <li>
643: <p>
644: The OpenBSD sources are from Canada. As
645: <a href="http://insight.mcmaster.ca/org/efc/pages/doc/crypto-export.html">
646: researched by a Canadian individual</a> and as
647: <a href="http://axion.physics.ubc.ca/ECL.html">
648: described in the Export Control list of Canada</a>,
649: it is legal to export crypto software from Canada to the world.
650: </p>
651: </li>
652: <li>
653: <p>
654: However, if you are outside the USA or Canada, you should not
655: fetch the cryptographic sections of the OpenBSD sources from an
656: AnonCVS server located in the USA. The files in question are...
657: </p>
658: <ul>
659: <li><tt>src/kerberosIV/*</tt></li>
660: <li><tt>src/lib/libdes/*</tt></li>
661: <li><tt>src/lib/libc/crypt/crypt.c</tt></li>
662: <li><tt>src/lib/libc/crypt/morecrypt.c</tt></li>
663: <li><tt>src/sys/netinet</tt></li>
664: <li><tt>src/usr.sbin/afs/src/rxkad/*</tt></li>
665: <li><tt>X11/xc/lib/Xdmcp/Wraphelp.c</tt></li>
666: </ul>
667: <p>
668: Because of the USA ITAR munitions list,
669: crypto software may only be exported to Canada from the USA.
