Thread: CVS co -c failure on pgadmin cvs server??
Hi, I'm trying to log into the cvs for pgadmin2 for the first time. This is the first time using cvs as well. I understand that cvs co -c tells you what modules are available. Nothing is returned (I have done the CVSROOT variable setting and then cvs login first as an anonymouse user). Is this right? Using the web browser I saw what the folders were anyway and just did a cvs co pgadmin2 which seems to be working as I speak. Is there a cvs faq for would-be developers for pgAdmin? Thanks Tim.

No, I'm a complete amateur when it comes to CVS as well :-(. We (the core developers) tend to use WinCVS which makes it all nice and easy. Regards, Dave.
> Is there a cvs faq for would-be developers for pgAdmin? Dear Tim, Thanks, your help on pgAdmin2 is welcome. You are using command line CVS, right? Maybe you should try http://www.wincvs.org for these reasons 1) Nice GUI with extensive documentation. 2) It can well handle text and windows binaries. Enter :pserver:anonymous@cvs.pgadmin.org:/disk1/cvsroot in WinCVS and everything should be fine. Coding standards are described in pgAdmin2 online help. Do not hesitate to contact us back. Best regards, Jean-Michel
