-Notes on CVS Usage
-
-Accessing the repository
-
-
-The recommended way of accessing the BIND 9 CVS repository is by ssh
-to rc.isc.org, using the following environment settings:
-
-   CVSROOT=:ext:rc.isc.org:/proj/cvs/isc
-   CVS_RSH=ssh
-
-
-Creating a release branch
-
-
-Here's how the 9.0 release branch was created:
-
-  cvs rtag v9_0_base bind9
-  cvs rtag -b -r v9_0_base v9_0 bind9
-

-Renaming files by respository copy
-
-
-When you need to rename or move a file that is under CVS control, use
-the "repository copy" method as described in the following text
-borrowed from an ancient CVS FAQ:
-
-        2C.4   How do I rename a file?
-
-        CVS does not offer a way to rename a file in a way that CVS can
-        track later.  See Section 4B for more information.
-
-        Here is the best way to get the effect of renaming, while
-        preserving the change log:
-
-           1. Copy the RCS (",v") file directly in the Repository.
-
-                cp $CVSROOT/<odir>/<ofile>,v $CVSROOT/<ndir>/<nfile>,v
-
-           2. Remove the old file using CVS.
-
-              By duplicating the file, you will preserve the change
-              history and the ability to retrieve earlier revisions of the
-              old file via the "-r <tag/rev>" or "-D <date>" options to
-              "checkout" and "update".
-
-                cd <working-dir>/<odir>
-                rm <ofile>
-                cvs remove <ofile>
-                cvs commit <ofile>
-
-           3. Retrieve <newfile> and remove all the Tags from it.
-
-              By stripping off all the old Tags, the "checkout -r" and
-              "update -r" commands won't retrieve revisions Tagged before
-              the renaming.
-
-                cd <working-dir>/<ndir>
-                cvs update <nfile>
-                cvs log <nfile>                 # Save the list of Tags
-                cvs tag -d <tag1> <nfile>
-                cvs tag -d <tag2> <nfile>
-                . . .
-
-
-        This technique can be used to rename files within one directory or
-        across different directories.  You can apply this idea to
-        directories too, as long as you apply the above to each file and
-        don't delete the old directory.
-
-        Of course, you have to change the build system (e.g. Makefile) in
-        your <working-dir> to know about the name change.
-
-
-Pulling up a newly added file to a release branch:
-
-In a mainline working tree, do something like this:
-
-  cvs tag v9_0_base file
-  cvs tag -b -r v9_0_base v9_0 file
-
-
-Importing contrib source from vendor release
-
-As an example, here's how queryperf was imported:
-
-  cd /tmp
-  cvs -d shell.nominum.com:/proj/cvs/nominum export -rHEAD queryperf
-  cd queryperf
-  cvs -d rc.isc.org:/proj/cvs/isc import bind9/contrib/queryperf \
-	NOMINUM NOMINUM_20010710
