Re: Neophyte CVS user question

[David Bateman]

As your mail client is PINE I'll take a stab in the dark and say you
are running under a unix like system. Therefore an appropriate sequence
to get the entire CVS source tree is

cvs -d:pserver:address@hidden:/cvsroot/octave login
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:address@hidden:/cvsroot/octave co octave-forge

Once you've checked out the code once you can update it just by using

cvs update -PAd

where the "-P" prunes empty directories, "-A" resets sticky tags and "-d"
creates new directories....
