Re: [Phpgroupware-users] Help with CVS installation

[Mark A Peters (Skeeter)]

To simplify things, I would suggest that if you cvs co using '-r
Version-0_9_14-branch' instead of '-r Version-0_9_14-branch-RC2' you will
only need to issue 'cvs -z3 update -dP' to get a complete update of the
entire phpGW system.

The -RC1, -RC2 are considered to be snapshots at the time when we built
the RC releases.  The Version-0_9_14-branch is the running branch where we
are constantly making fixes.  The .14 version should never really need any
updates to either the header or the configuration settings, but, I would
suggest every once in a while to go into the setup/configuration and look
at Step 3 - Manage Languages and reinstall your language files, if you
have not already made custom entries or added any new phrases.

Hope this helps,
