A sample use of an anoncvs CVS server would be:

<ul>

<pre>

% setenv CVSROOT anoncvs@anoncvs.usa.openbsd.org:/cvs

% cd /tmp

Line 243

Line 246

% cvs diff -bc -r1.1 -r1.5 src/sys/arch/sparc/sparc/locore.s

[shows the changes between revisions 1.1 and rev 1.5]

</pre>

</ul>

Here is how someone using anoncvs regularily would update his

source tree:

<ul><li>First, startout by `get'-ing an initial tree:

<pre>

# setenv CVSROOT anoncvs@anoncvs.usa.openbsd.org:/cvs

# cd /usr

# cvs -q get -PA src

</pre>

or similarily later on he might try:

</li>

<li> Anytime afterwards, to `update' this tree:

<pre>

# cd /usr

# cvs -q up -PAd src

</pre>

Everytime you ran this it would syncronize your /usr/src tree. It would

not destroy any of your local changes, rather it would attempt to merge

changes in. If you use obj directories (not obj symbolic links) you may

wish to append "-I obj" to the cvs command line, this will keep cvs from

spitting out a warning about all the obj directories it is going to

encounter which are not in the repository.

</li>

</ul>

In the above example, '-q' is optional, only intended to minimize

cvs's output. For those who like to see screenfulls of output, it

can be omitted.
