6.2. CVS Access to the Rocks Source Tree

Anonymous read-only access is provided in two forms:

6.2.1. Read-Only Access to CVS

To checkout the source, first you need to login:

$ cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.rocksclusters.org:/home/cvs/CVSROOT login

This will ask for a password. No password is required, just enter an empty password.

After anonymously logging in, checkout the source tree:

$ cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.rocksclusters.org:/home/cvs/CVSROOT checkout -r ROCKS_4_1 rocks

After initial checkout, you can change into this directory and execute cvs commands without the -d option. For example:

$ cvs update

6.2.2. Read-Write Access to CVS

Send a copy of your public ssh version 1 key (e.g., ~/.ssh/identity.pub) to cvs@rocksclusters.org, and a short note explaining why you need write access. If you do not already have an ssh key on your client machine, simply run ssh-keygen -t rsa1 to build one.

Once we receive your public key, we will create an account for you and provide instructions on how to access the repository.
