Fetching CVS:
------------
* To fetch the current CVS code run this commands:
mkdir somewhere/BackupPC
cd somewhere/BackupPC
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@backuppc.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/backuppc co BackupPC
* To fetch the CVS code tagged at a particular release (eg: v3.2.0):
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@backuppc.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/backuppc co -r v3_2_0 BackupPC
Building an installable release from the CVS source:
---------------------------------------------------
* Update makeDist and configure.pl if you add any new files to the release.
* Run makeDist, using arguments to specify the release date and version:
makeDist --releasedate '29 Mar 2009' --version 3.2.0beta0
makeDist merges the version number, release date and turns all the
library paths etc back into the symbolic form (eg: __INSTALLDIR__)
so that configure.pl will do the right thing.
Sometime the language files are not up to date, and makeDist exits
after complaining about the lang files being inconsistent. Use
the --nolangCheck option to turn off that checking.
By default makeDist does a syntax check on all the source files.
If you want to skip that you can use tune --nosyntaxCheck option, eg:
makeDist --nolangCheck --nosyntaxCheck --releasedate '31 Jul 2010' --version 3.2.0
* You should now have a sub-directory dist/BackupPC-VERSION containing
the release and a tar ball dist/BackupPC-VERSION.tar.gz. You can
cd to dist/BackupPC-VERSION and run configure.pl from there, or
the tar ball can be copied, extracted and installed using configure.pl
like any BackupPC release.
