CVS access?

From
Todd Graham Lewis
Date:
Hello.

The web page does not, so far as I can tell, detail how to get access to
the PostgreSQL CVS tree.  I just want read access so that I can take a look
at the latest source and do some poking around.

1) Can someone tell me how to get to it, and

2) Can someone please put it in the download section of the web page?

Thanks!

Login
cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@postgresql.org:/usr/local/cvsroot login      password is 'postgresql'

Development copy
cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@postgresql.org:/usr/local/cvsroot co pgsql

Stable copy (i think)
cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@postgresql.org:/usr/local/cvsroot co -rREL6_4 pgsql

There is a CVS FAQ, which you'll find off the Getting Help/Documentation
page of the website.  I agree it oughta be linked from the Download page
as well...

It's a little bit out of date --- it recommends cvs 1.9 but the latest
is 1.10.  That nasty permissions bug it mentions *is* fixed in 1.10 BTW.
        regards, tom lane

I've started a chapter for the sgml docs (cvs.sgml) which includes the
CVS_FAQ and various e-mail communications from scrappy about the CVS
tree structure. Haven't finished marking it up though...
