NAME

       mod_perl_cvs - Access to the mod_perl CVS development tree


DESCRIPTION

       The mod_perl development tree lives on cvs.apache.org.  This tree con-
       tains the latest mod_perl bug fixes and developments that have not made
       it to CPAN yet.  Welcome to the bleeding edge.


SYNOPSIS

       Just as cvs access to the Apache development tree, the mod_perl code
       pulled from cvs is not guaranteed to do anything, especially not com-
       pile or work.  But, that's exactly why we are using cvs, so everyone
       has access the latest version and can help see to it that mod_perl does
       compile and work on all platforms, with the various versions and con-
       figurations of Perl and Apache.  Patches are always welcome, simply
       testing the latest snapshots is just as, if not more helpful.

       It's recommended to subscribe to the modperl-cvs@perl.apache.org list,
       which is the place cvs commit logs and diffs are mailed to; at least if
       you're going to work on the code.

       Here are the several ways to access the cvs tree.

       cvsup
           Cvsup has come out of the FreeBSD group. It's a client/server beast
           that offers an efficient way to sync collections of files over the
           net, and it is very CVS aware, allowing syncronisation of reposito-
           ries or checked out files using the cvs deltas to bring the client
           side files up to date with minimal data transfer.

           For a FreeBSD cvsup client see:

           http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/ports.cgi?query=cvsup&stype=all

           Others (SunOS, alpha.osf, linux, Solaris2.4, HPAA 10.2, irix)
           ftp://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/CVSup/

           Here's a config file for the client (cvsup) to sync modperl
           sources.

            *default tag=.
            # comment out the above if you want the raw cvs files

            *default host=cvs.apache.org
            *default prefix=/path/on/this/machine/to/install/
            # a subdir for modperl will appear here ^^^

            *default base=/path/on/this/machine/where/cvsup/will/keep/status/info
            # you'll never need to look in the 'base' dir.

            *default release=cvs delete use-rel-suffix compress

            modperl
            #apache-src
            #apache-docs
            #uncomment these two for the latest apache src and/or docs if you want them

       anoncvs
           To checkout a fresh copy from anoncvs use

            cvs -d ":pserver:anoncvs@cvs.apache.org:/home/cvspublic" login

           with the password "anoncvs".

            cvs -d ":pserver:anoncvs@cvs.apache.org:/home/cvspublic" co modperl

           For a basic introduction to anoncvs see http://dev.apache.org/anon-
           cvs.txt

       from-cvs
           A snapshot is rolled of the modperl tree every 6 hours and placed
           here:

           http://cvs.apache.org/snapshots/modperl/

           A snapshot of the Apache development tree is also rolled every 6
           hours and placed here:

           http://cvs.apache.org/snapshots/
