Hi, > Which one will you do ? provide the patch, or commit the patch ? I can do both, just tell me what you prefer, but the diff to the bitkeeper tree will be larger (but I can omit nonrelevant changes like added/removed files in non-m68k/ppc dirs). > i am checkin out the 2.3 tree, but it seems to be quite slow, ... I'm noticing that too. :) Anyway, which kernel do we take as base kernel? Most relevant are in the main tree, but the bitkeeper tree is still more uptodate for ppc stuff. On the other hand creating a release would be quite easy with the main tree. Keeping both in there is possible too, but creates quite some work. bye, Roman |

If someone can keep the bitkeeper tree up to date, I think having that one would be better. As Jesper pointed out, making diffs to the native tree is easy.

I think someone with a faster connection should do this (I'm still checking out...) I've put to files into incoming, one diff against the bitkeeper tree and one against the native tree. bye, Roman |

Anyway, it seems like we aren't as lucky as we thought - we can't access the repository files. ssh can only be used for CVS on the machine holding the repository.

For the second branch (2.3): - create a diff between 2.2 and 2.3 - create the branch in your checked out 2.2 cvs tree - apply the diff to your checked out tree - do cvs add/rm where needed for new/obsolete files - check everything in After that you have two branches: main (2.2) and 2.3. The attached `patch2cvs' script may be useful to generate cvs add/rm commands from the diff. I wrote it when I had my own CVS repository[*] with Linus', Jes', vger and my personal kernel sources, and I needed such a beast. There's one major missing feature: it doesn't catch new/obsolete directories, so you still have to do those manually.

hi, what does it mean if you just drop back to your shell after issuing the cvs login command? I'm trying on a different machine with direct all-port net access and my CVSROOT is set correctly to :pserver:etcetc this is the same behaviour as my machine at home...which led me to ask about passwords ;-) > This one i know, just use the :ext: method and you developper login and > password, should work, ... sorry, but whats the syntax for this?

Yes, i checked, i have no right to access cvs.linux-apus.sourceforge.net, trying to ssh in gives me a : ----------------------------------------------------- No mail.
