If you want to update part (or all) of our CVS repository from the
mainline Athena tree, here is how to go about it:
* Use "cvs export" to get a copy of the relevant part of the
Athena source tree.
(Caveat: do this to local disk, or do it on a BSDish
machine. Due to bugs in AFS errno handling, "cvs
export" doesn't work properly into AFS space on System
Vish machines.)
* Use "cvs import" to import it into our tree. Use a vendor
tag of "mit" and a release tag of "snap-YEAR_MONTH_DAY".
Since the devil is in the details, here is an example of what Nathan
might have done for xmh:
setenv CVSROOT /afs/dev.mit.edu/source/repository
cd /var/tmp
cvs -u export -d xmh -D now third/xmh
cd xmh
setenv CVSROOT /afs/dev.mit.edu/project/sipb/repository
cvs import -m "12/13/97 Athena snapshot, with strerror fixes" \
third/xmh mit snap-97_12_13
