Cameron Laird's personal index to publicly-accessible CVS repositories
Table of Contents
'Need to see the latest fixes in the source code for a particular
open-source
project? I often do. At times like that, I
want the CVSROOT and password for the project. That's the
point of this page. For more detailed information, follow
the links on this page, or
Cyclic's
Free
Software Products Using CVS;
the latter complements the data here. Both of these point
to the standard tutorials and introductions to CVS.
Also noteworthy is Philip Greenspun's
Using CVS for
Web development; as with everything Philip writes, I
recommend it, even though I don't agree with it. Note that
the external commenters who appear at the tail of his article
are astute and experienced.
I launched this page a few days before publication of our
column
introducing CVS to scripting language users.
Stephen Cameron covers much the same territory; he, also, has a page of
Anonymous
CVS Servers he has identified.
If you don't find a particular project or category here, just
ask about it; chances
are I simply haven't unpacked those notes yet.
The Perl core is not publicly accessible through CVS.
JPL:
- CVSROOT: :pserver:anoncvs@as220.org:/usr/local/projects/jpl/cvsroot
- password: [blank]
- CVSROOT: :pserver:pythoncvs@cvs.python.org:/projects/cvsroot
- password: snakeoil
A detailed page on
"Source
Access Via CVS" is part of the official
Python language site.
The
Python
for Windows extensions (COM, Win32, Pythonwin, Windows CE)
are separately
managed
with
- CVSROOT: :pserver:anoncvs@cvs.pythonpros.com:/home/cvsroot
- password: anoncvs
Rexx
- CVSROOT: :pserver:cvs@cvs.scriptics.com:/cvsroot
- password: cvs
Scriptics
maintains a
full page
of directions on use of its repository. Scriptics
has a nice project-and-branch structure within its
repository.
