1.1 brian 36:
37: <p>
38: <b>CVSup</b> is a software package for distributing and updating source
1.58 naddy 39: 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 40: sources are maintained in a CVS repository on a central development machine
41: in Canada. With CVSup, OpenBSD users can easily keep their own source trees
42: up to date.
43:
44: <p>
45: <b>CVSup</b> uses the so-called pull model of updating. Under the pull
46: model, each client asks the server for updates, if and when they are
47: wanted. The server waits passively for update requests from its clients.
48: Thus all updates are instigated by the client. The server never sends
49: unsolicited updates. Users must either run the <b>CVSup</b> client
1.58 naddy 50: 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 51: automatically on a regular basis.
52:
53: <p>
54: The term <b>CVSup</b>, capitalized just so, refers to the entire software
55: package. Its main components are the client <tt>cvsup</tt> which runs on
56: each user's machine, and the server <tt>cvsupd</tt> which runs at each of
57: the OpenBSD CVSup mirror sites.
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:
63: <p>
1.21 naddy 64: The OpenBSD Project currently has five main source repositories:
1.1 brian 65:
66: <ul>
1.9 naddy 67: <li><b>src</b> - Houses all source code for the OpenBSD Operating System.</li>
68: <li><b>ports</b> - Houses the <a href="./ports.html">OpenBSD Ports</a>.</li>
69: <li><b>www</b> - Houses all OpenBSD web pages. (Including this one).</li>
70: <li><b>x11</b> - Houses OpenBSD's adaptation of the
1.20 brian 71: <a href="http://www.XFree86.org/">XFree86-3</a> software project.</li>
72: <li><b>xf4</b> - Houses OpenBSD's adaptation of the
73: <a href="http://www.XFree86.org/">XFree86-4</a> software project.</li>
1.1 brian 74: </ul>
75:
1.21 naddy 76: <h3><a name="CVS"><font color="#0000e0">What Is CVS?</font></a></h3>
1.1 brian 77:
78: <p>
79: CVS is the source code control system used to manage the OpenBSD source
1.7 brian 80: tree. It is described in more detail <a href="anoncvs.html#CVS">here</a>.
1.50 naddy 81: Note that CVS and CVSup are entirely different programs. Although
82: CVS can be used for remote file access, it is not optimized for
83: wholesale source tree distribution over the net, and CVSup can be
84: easily an order of magnitude more efficient for this task.
1.1 brian 85:
1.2 brian 86: <h3>
1.21 naddy 87: <a name="starting"><font color="#0000e0">Getting Started Using CVSup</font></a>
1.2 brian 88: </h3>
1.1 brian 89:
90: <p>
1.59 naddy 91: Building CVSup from the sources can prove cumbersome since it is
92: written in Modula-3. The <tt>lang/ezm3</tt> port provides a smaller
93: distribution of the Modula-3 compiler and runtime system for people
94: whose only need for Modula-3 is to build CVSup. Nevertheless, if
95: you only care about running CVSup, it is recommended that you
96: download the cvsup package from the <a href="ftp.html">ftp mirror
97: sites</a> instead of building your own from the <tt>net/cvsup</tt>
98: port. Currently the OpenBSD ports of Ezm3 and consequently CVSup
99: are only available on the i386 platform.
1.1 brian 100:
101: <p>
1.50 naddy 102: For further information about CVSup, see the author's
103: <a href="http://www.polstra.com/projects/freeware/CVSup/">project
104: homepage</a>.
1.9 naddy 105:
106: <p>
1.50 naddy 107: In order to mirror the OpenBSD repository with CVSup,
108: the following configuration file might be used:
1.1 brian 109:
110: <pre>
111: # Defaults that apply to all the collections
112: *default release=cvs
113: *default delete use-rel-suffix
114: *default umask=002
1.41 brad 115: *default host=cvsup.uk.openbsd.org
1.1 brian 116: *default base=/cvs
117: *default prefix=/cvs
118:
119: # If your network link is a T1 or faster, comment out the following line.
120: *default compress
121:
122: OpenBSD-all
123: #OpenBSD-src
124: #OpenBSD-www
125: #OpenBSD-ports
126: #OpenBSD-x11
1.20 brian 127: #OpenBSD-xf4
1.1 brian 128: </pre>
129:
130: <p>
131: This directs cvsup to refresh all OpenBSD distributions from
1.58 naddy 132: <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 133: permission to the local repository.
134:
135: <p>
136: Assuming this file is saved as <tt>cvs-supfile</tt>, the
1.39 horacio 137: following command would be used to invoke the cvsup GUI:
1.1 brian 138: <pre>
139: cvsup cvs-supfile
140: </pre>
1.9 naddy 141: <p>
1.1 brian 142: whereas for batch mode, the following might be used:
143: <pre>
144: cvsup -g -L 2 cvs-supfile
145: </pre>
146:
1.21 naddy 147: <h3><a name="using">
1.7 brian 148: <font color="#0000e0">Using CVS to Update Your Source Tree</font>
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:
154: <pre>
155: # cd /usr
156: # CVSROOT=/cvs cvs checkout src
157: </pre>
158: <p>
159: For csh and its derivatives:
160: <pre>
161: # cd /usr
162: # setenv CVSROOT /cvs
163: # cvs checkout src
164: </pre>
1.1 brian 165:
166: <p>
1.7 brian 167: The above will check out the most current sources. Many of you will only
1.1 brian 168: want the release sources, especially if you are patching your system. To
169: checkout release sources you must specify a tag along with your command.
170: For example:
1.7 brian 171: <pre>
172: # cd /usr
1.40 jufi 173: # cvs checkout -rOPENBSD_2_9 src
1.7 brian 174: </pre>
175: <p>
1.40 jufi 176: Or <tt>OPENBSD_2_8</tt> for 2.8, etc.
1.7 brian 177:
1.21 naddy 178: <h3><a name="checkout"><font color="#0000e0">Running CVSup in
1.7 brian 179: Checkout Mode</font></a></h3>
1.1 brian 180:
181: <p>
1.7 brian 182: As an alternative to getting the repository and using CVS, you can
183: run CVSup in checkout mode by adding a <tt>tag</tt> or <tt>date</tt>
184: keyword to your supfile, either as a <tt>*default</tt> or as an
185: option to a collection. In particular, you can use this to efficiently
186: update the source and ports trees shipped on the <a
187: href="orders.html">CDROMs</a>.
188: <p>
189: The following supfile could be used to update your ports tree:
190: <pre>
191: # Defaults that apply to all the collections
192: *default host=cvsup.uk.openbsd.org
193: *default base=/var
194: *default prefix=/usr
195: *default release=cvs
196: *default delete use-rel-suffix compress
197:
198: # Ports Collection.
199: OpenBSD-ports tag=.
200: </pre>
201: <p>
202: Any CVS symbolic tag can be used. A single period "." means HEAD,
203: i.e. the newest revision of all files in the main branch. Take care
204: to specify an existing tag, as CVSup cannot distinguish valid from
205: invalid tags, and an attempt to synchronize an existing source tree
206: to an invalid tag will remove all files.
207: <p>
208: Alternatively, use the keyword <tt>date=[cc.]yy.mm.dd.hh.mm.ss</tt>
1.60 deraadt 209: to select a revision by date. All 17 or 20 characters must be
1.7 brian 210: given as shown. For the years 2000 and beyond, specify the century
211: <var>cc</var>. For earlier years, specify only the last two digits
212: <var>yy</var>. You may also combine the <tt>tag</tt> and <tt>date</tt>
213: keywords.

1.1 brian 758: <strong>IMPORTANT NOTE:</strong>
759: There are a few issues relating to cryptographic software that everyone

761: <ul>
1.9 naddy 762: <li>
763: <p>
764: The OpenBSD sources are from Canada. As
1.67 nick 765: <a href="http://www.efc.ca/pages/doc/crypto-export.html">
1.9 naddy 766: researched by a Canadian individual</a> and as
767: <a href="http://axion.physics.ubc.ca/ECL.html">
768: described in the Export Control list of Canada</a>,
769: it is legal to export crypto software from Canada to the world.
770: </li>
771: <li>
772: <p>
773: However, if you are outside the USA or Canada, you should not
1.72 naddy 774: fetch the cryptographic sections of the OpenBSD sources from a
775: CVSup server located in the USA. The files in question are...
