Now that you have added 'project' to your CVS repository, you will want to be
able to modify the code.
A D V E R T I S E M E N T
To do this you want to check out the source. You will want to cd to your home
directory before you do this.
cd
cvs checkout project
CVS should respond with cvs checkout: Updating project
U project/Makefile
U project/bar.c
U project/foo.c
U project/main.c
This creates the project directory in your home directory and puts the files:
Makefile, bar.c, foo.c, and main.c into the directory along with a CVS directory
which stores some information about the files.
You can now make changes to any of the files in the source tree.
Lets say you add a printf("DONE\n"); after the function
call to bar()
[Or just cp /class/bfennema/project_other/main2.c to main.c]
Now you have to check in the new copy
cvs commit -m "Added a DONE message." main.c
CVS should respond with Checking in main.c;
/class/'username'/cvsroot/project/main.c,v <-- main.c
new revision: 1.2; previous revision: 1.1
done
Note, the -m option lets you define the checking message on the command line. If
you omit it you will be placed into an editor where you can type in the checking
message.
