''Note that [[Subversion]] is a more powerful alternative to CVS; you should use it instead unless you have a good reason.'' == Setting up a CVS respository == * To set up a '''CVS''' repository for your team in your Athena locker: *# <code>mkdir ~/maslabcvs</code> (you can name it whatever you want) *# <code>fs setacl -dir ~/maslabcvs -acl system:maslab-2006-team-''N'' all</code> (where ''N'' is your team number; see [[Athena lists]]) *# <code>setenv CVSROOT $HOME/maslabcvs</code> *# <code>cvs init</code> *# Change to the directory that contains your code. Make sure it contains only files/directories that you want to put in the repository. *# <code>cvs import ''modulename'' init head</code> (where <code>''modulename''</code> is a name you pick) * If one of your teammates has set up a repository for your team, do this: *# <code>attach ''teammate''</code> (where <code>''teammate''</code> is the username of the person who made the repository) *# <code>setenv CVSROOT /mit/''teammate''/maslabcvs</code> *# If you put the previous two lines in your [[Athena settings|<code>.environment</code> file]], you won't ever need to type them again. You might also want to set <code>CVS_EDITOR</code> to your favorite text editor. It will be used for recording log messages when you commit. == Using CVS == * To checkout a copy of the code: <code>cvs co ''modulename''</code>. * To update your copy to the latest version: <code>cvs up</code>. * To commit your changes: <code>cvs commit</code> (you must update before you can commit).
