(footnote 1)
|
|
AIX 4.1 systems fail to run "configure" due to bugs in their
|
|
"/bin/sh" implementation. You might want to try feeding the
|
|
configure script to "bash" ported to AIX 4.1. (about 1.4A2).
|
|
|
|
(footnote 2)
|
|
Some Irix 4.0 systems may core dump in malloc while running
|
|
CVS. We believe this is a bug in the Irix malloc. You can
|
|
workaround this bug by linking with "-lmalloc" if necessary.
|
|
(about 1.4A2).
|
|
|
|
(footnote 3)
|
|
There are some warnings about pointer casts which can safely be
|
|
ignored. (about 1.4.90).
|
|
|
|
(footnote 4) Comment out the include of sys/time.h in src/server.c. (1.4.93)
|
|
You also may have to make sure TIME_WITH_SYS_TIME is undef'ed.
|
|
|
|
(footnote 5) Change /usr/tmp to /var/tmp in src/server.c (2 places) (1.4.93).
|
|
|
|
(footnote 6) Build in ucb universe with COFF compiler tools. Put
|
|
/usr/local/bin first in PATH while doing a configure, make
|
|
and install of GNU diffutils-2.7, rcs-5.7, then cvs-1.5.
|
|
|
|
(footnote 7) Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@pilgrim.umass.edu> reports
|
|
success with this configure command:
|
|
CC=cc CFLAGS='-O2 -Olimit 2000 -std1' ./configure --verbose alpha-dec-osf
|
|
|
|
(footnote 8) Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@pilgrim.umass.edu> reports
|
|
success with this configure command:
|
|
CC=cc CFLAGS='+O2 -Aa -D_HPUX_SOURCE' ./configure --verbose hppa1.1-hp-hpux
|
|
|
|
(footnote 9)
|
|
Had to configure with ./configure --host=<arch>-lynx.
|
|
|
|
In src/cvs.h, protected the waitpid prototype with ifdef _POSIX_SOURCE.
|
|
(I might try building with gcc -mposix -D_POSIX_SOURCE.)
|
|
|
|
LynxOS has <dirent.h>, but you don't want to use it.
|
|
You want to use <sys/dir.h> instead.
|
|
So after running configure I had to undef HAVE_DIRENT_H and
|
|
define HAVE_SYS_DIR_H.
|
|

|
(footnote 10) Ralf E. Stranzenbach <ralf@reswi.ruhr.de>
|
|
I've made some modifications to "filesubr.c" to deal with NFS
|
|
mounted directories (and those funny .nfs* files). This patch
|
|
should be used whenever the programmers "sandbox" is located on
|
|
a NFS mounted device --- at least on NeXTSTEP.
|
|
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Installation under Unix:
|
|
|
|
1) Run "configure":
|
|
|
|
$ ./configure
|
|
|
|
You can specify an alternate destination to override the default with
|
|
the --prefix option:
|
|
|
|
$ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/gnu
|
|
|
|
or some path that is more appropriate for your site. The default prefix
|
|
value is "/usr/local", with binaries in sub-directory "bin", manual
|
|
pages in sub-directory "man", and libraries in sub-directory "lib".
|
|
|
|
If you are using server or local CVS, RCS needs to be installed in
|
|
the user's PATH (or a path you have configured in src/options.h,
|
|
or a path specified with the -b option). If you don't have RCS,
|
|
you will need to get it from GNU as well. It is best to get the
|
|
version 5.7 (or later) version of RCS, available from
|
|
prep.ai.mit.edu in the file pub/gnu/rcs-5.7.tar.gz.
|
|
|
|
If you want version control of files with binary data, make sure
|
|
that the RCS configure script finds GNU diff 1.15 or later and
|
|
notices that diff supports the -a option. CVS itself is much less
|
|
picky about which version of diff it uses, and you shouldn't need
|
|
to worry about that.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: The configure program will cache the results of the previous
|
|
configure execution. If you need to re-run configure from scratch, you
|
|
may need to run "make distclean" first to remove the cached
|
|
configuration information.
|
|
|
|
If you are using gcc and are planning to modify CVS, you may want to
|
|
configure with -Wall; see the file HACKING for details.
|
|
|
|
Try './configure --help' for further information on its usage.
|
|
|
|
NOTE ON CVS's USE OF NDBM:
|
|
|
|
By default, CVS uses some built-in ndbm emulation code to allow
|
|
CVS to work in a heterogeneous environment. However, if you have
|
|
a very large modules database, this may not work well. You will
|
|
need to edit src/options.h to turn off the MY_NDBM #define and
|
|
re-run configure. If you do this, the following comments apply.
|
|
If not, you may safely skip these comments.
|
|
|
|
If you configure CVS to use the real ndbm(3) libraries and
|
|
you do not have them installed in a "normal" place, you will
|
|
probably want to get the GNU version of ndbm (gdbm) and install
|
|
that before running the CVS configure script. Be aware that the
|
|
GDBM 1.5 release does NOT install the <ndbm.h> header file included
|
|
with the release automatically. You may have to install it by hand.
|
|
|
|
If you configure CVS to use the ndbm(3) libraries, you cannot
|
|
compile CVS with GNU cc (gcc) on Sun-4 SPARC systems. However, gcc
|
|
2.0 may have fixed this limitation if -fpcc-struct-return is
|
|
defined. When using gcc on other systems to compile CVS, you *may*
|
|
need to specify the -fpcc-struct-return option to gcc (you will
|
|
*know* you have to if "cvs checkout" core dumps in some ndbm
|
|
function). You can do this as follows:
|
|
|
|
$ CC='gcc -fpcc-struct-return' ./configure
|
|
|
|
for sh, bash, and ksh users and:
|
|
|
|
% setenv CC 'gcc -fpcc-struct-return'
|
|
% ./configure
|
|
|
|
for csh and tcsh users.
|
|
|
|
END OF NOTE FOR NDBM GUNK.
|
|
|
|
2) Edit src/options.h. Appropriate things to look at may be the
|
|
invocation locations of programs like DIFF and GREP.
|
|
Also glance at the default values for the environment variables
|
|
that CVS uses, in particular, the RCSBIN variable, which holds the
|
|
path to where the RCS programs live on your system.
|
|
|
|
3) Try to build it:
|
|
|
|
$ make
|
|
|
|
This will (hopefully) make the needed CVS binaries within the
|
|
"src" directory. If something fails for your system, and you want
|
|
to submit a bug report, you may wish to include your
|
|
"config.status" file, your host type, operating system and
|
|
compiler information, make output, and anything else you think
|
|
will be helpful.
|
|
|
|
3a) Run the regression tests (optional).
|
|
|
|
You may also wish to validate the correctness of the new binary by
|
|
running the regression tests:
|
|
|
|
$ make check
|
|
|
|
Note that if your /bin/sh doesn't support shell functions, you'll
|
|
have to try something like this, where "/bin/sh5" is replaced by the
|
|
pathname of a shell which handles normal shell functions:
|
|
|
|
$ make SHELL=/bin/sh5 check
|
|
|
|
WARNING: This test can take quite a while to run, esp. if your
|
|
disks are slow or over-loaded.
|
|
|
|
If you receive any un-expected output from the regression tests,
|
|
it may indicate a bug in CVS (or might just indicate a problem
|
|
running the tests). If you choose to submit a bug report,
|
|
be aware that, as with all bug reports, you may or may not get a
|
|
response, and your odds might be better if you include enough information
|
|
to reproduce the bug, an analysis of what is going wrong (if you have
|
|
the time and ability to provide one), etc. The check.log file is the
|
|
first place to look.
|
|
|
|
4) Install the binaries/documentation:
|
|
|
|
$ make install
|
|
|
|
Depending on your installation's configuration, you may need to be
|
|
root to do this.
|
|
|
|
5) Take a look at the CVS documentation.
|
|
|
|
$ man cvs
|
|
|
|
and
|
|
|
|
$ info cvs
|
|
|
|
See what it can do for you, and if it fits your environment (or can
|
|
possibly be made to fit your environment). If things look good,
|
|
continue on...
|
|
|
|
6) Set up the master source repository. See the "Setting up the repository"
|
|
section of cvs.texinfo for details; the one-line summary is (if you
|
|
are putting the repository in /src/master):
|
|
$ cvs -d /src/master init
|
|
|
|
7) Have all users of the CVS system set the CVSROOT environment
|
|
variable appropriately to reflect the placement of your source
|
|
repository. If the above example is used, the following commands
|
|
can be placed in user's ~/.profile, ~/.bash_profile file; or in the
|
|
site-wide /etc/profile:
|
|
|
|
CVSROOT=/src/master; export CVSROOT
|
|
|
|
for sh/bash/ksh users, or place the following commands in the user's
|
|
~/.cshrc, ~/.login, or /etc/chsrc file:
|
|
|
|
setenv CVSROOT /src/master
|
|
|
|
for csh/tcsh users. If these environment variables are not already set
|
|
in your current shell, set them now (or source the login script you
|
|
just edited). You will need to have the CVSROOT environment variable
|
|
set to continue on to the next step.
|
|
|
|
8) It might be a good idea to jump right in and put the CVS distribution
|
|
directly under CVS control. From within the top-level directory of the
|
|
CVS distribution (the one that contains this README file) do the
|
|
following commands:
|
|
|
|
$ make distclean
|
|
$ cvs import -m 'CVS 1.6 distribution' cvs CVS_DIST CVS-1_6
|
|
|
|
9) Having done step 8, one should be able to checkout a fresh copy of the
|
|
CVS distribution and hack away at the sources with the following command:
|
|
|
|
$ cd
|
|
$ cvs checkout cvs
|
|
|
|
This will make the directory "cvs" in your current directory and
|
|
populate it with the appropriate CVS files and directories.
|
|
|
|
10) You may wish to customize the various administrative files, in particular
|
|
modules. See cvs.texinfo for details.
|
|
|
|
11) Read the NEWS file to see what's new.
|
|
|
|
12) Hack away.

|
|
|
Detailed information about your interaction with "configure":
|
|
|
|
The "configure" script and its interaction with its options and the
|
|
environment is described here. For more detailed documentation about
|
|
"configure", please refer to the GNU Autoconf documentation.
|
|
|
|
Supported options are:
|
|
|
|
--srcdir=DIR Useful for compiling on many different
|
|
machines sharing one source tree.
|
|
--prefix=DIR The root of where to install the
|
|
various pieces of CVS (/usr/local).
|
|
--exec_prefix=DIR If you want executables in a
|
|
host-dependent place and shared
|
|
things in a host-independent place.
|
|
|
|
The following environment variables override configure's default
|
|
behaviour:
|
|
|
|
CC If not set, tries to use gcc first,
|
|
then cc. Also tries to use "-g -O"
|
|
as options, backing down to -g
|
|
alone if that doesn't work.
|
|
INSTALL If not set, tries to use "install", then
|
|
"./install-sh" as a final choice.
|
|
RANLIB If not set, tries to determine if "ranlib"
|
|
is available, choosing "echo" if it doesn't
|
|
appear to be.
|
|
YACC If not set, tries to determine if "bison"
|
|
is available, choosing "yacc" if it doesn't
|
|
appear to be.
|
|
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
Installation under Windows NT:
|
|
|
|
You may find interesting information in windows-NT/README.
|
|
|
|
1) Using Microsoft Visual C++ version 2.1, open the project `cvsnt.mak',
|
|
in the top directory of the CVS distribution.
|
|
2) Choose "Build cvs.exe" from the "Project" menu.
|
|
3) MSVC will place the executable file cvs.exe in WinDebug, or whatever
|
|
your target directory is.
