Thread: cvsup

I've been trying to set up a cvsup mirror following the instructions at 
http://developer.postgresql.org/docs/postgres/cvsup.html

However, it seems to be awry w.r.t. the earthdistance module. Could some 
kind person please tell me what needs to be done in either the cvsup 
config or the modules file or both, so that "cvs co -p pgsql" works nicely?

If done as an update to the docs that would be especially nice :-) But 
if not, I'll do the docs once I get it working.

cheers

Here's what I got working.

In CVSROOT/modules:

pgsql-earth     -d pgsql/contrib/earthdistance  earthdistance
pgsql-server    -d pgsql pgsql-server
pgsql                   -a      pgsql-server pgsql-earth


In postgres.cvsup:

# complete distribution, including all below
pgsql
earthdistance


Does that all make sense?

cheers

I've been using this in postgres.cvsup
  # complete distribution, including all below  repository

I think Marc told me to use that at one point.

Yup, that will bring down the /cvsroot to your machine, so that you can 
work similar to anoncvs, but locally ...
