5 This directory contains the virgin CVS source on the vendor branch. Do
6 not under any circumstances commit new versions onto the mainline, new
7 versions or official-patch versions must be imported.
9 To prepare a new cvs dist for import, extract it into a fresh directory;
10 then delete the files and directories listed in FREEBSD-Xlist.
12 CVS is imported from its top level directory something like this:
13 cvs -n import src/contrib/cvs CVSHOME v<version>
15 The -n option is "don't do anything" so you can see what is about to happen
16 first. Remove it when it looks ok.
18 The initial import was done with:
19 cvs import src/contrib/cvs CVSHOME v1_8_1
21 When new versions are imported, cvs will give instructions on how to merge
22 the local and vendor changes when/if conflicts arise.
24 The developers can be reached at: <devel-cvs@cyclic.com>. Local changes
25 that are suitable for public consumption should be submitted for inclusion

30 Current local changes:
31 - CVS_LOCAL_BRANCH_NUM environment variable support for choosing the
32 magic branch number. (for CVSup local-commit support)
33 - CVSREADONLYFS environment variable and global option -R to enable
34 no-locking readonly mode (eg: cvs repo is a cdrom or mirror)
35 - the verify message script can edit the submitted log message.
36 - CVSROOT/options file
37 - Variable keyword expansion controls including custom keywords.
38 - $ CVSHeader$ keyword - like Header, but with $CVSROOT stripped off.
