NAME
    Embperl::CVS - Access to the Embperl CVS development tree

  INTRO
    The Embperl development tree lives on the machine cvs.apache.org. This
    tree contains the latest Embperl bug fixes and developments that have
    not made it to CPAN yet. Welcome to the bleeding edge.

  SYNOPSIS
    Just like CVS access to the Apache development tree, the Embperl code
    pulled from CVS is not guaranteed to do anything, especially not compile
    or work. But - that's exactly why we are using CVS - so that everyone
    has access the latest version and can help ensure that Embperl does
    compile and work on all platforms, with the various versions and
    configurations of Perl and Apache, once it is really supposed to.
    Patches are always welcome. Simply testing the latest snapshots is just
    as (if not even more) helpful.

    There are several ways to access the CVS tree:

  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 embperl

  web-access
    You may browse the the *Embperl* CVS via
    http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/embperl/

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

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

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

    http://cvs.apache.org/snapshots/apache-1.3/

    and mod_perl can be found here

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

  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 repositories 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 Embperl 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/
     # an existing subdir under which embperl will appear ^^^

     *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

     embperl 
     #modperl
     #apache-src
     #apache-docs
     #uncomment these three for the latest apache src, docs and/or mod_perl
     #  if you want them

  Embperl 1.x
    There is no further developement in the Embperl 1.x branch, but case it
    will become necessary you can access the Embperl 1.x code via the branch
    ep1, so when you checkout just run

      cvs -d ":pserver:anoncvs@cvs.apache.org:/home/cvspublic" co -r ep1 embperl

  MAILING LIST
    There is a CVS mailing list for Embperl (This is CVS - not a list for
    asking questions about Embperl!!!). This list receives all changes which
    are commited to the CVS. If you want to know what's going on which
    Embperl, you can subscribe by sending a mail to
    embperl-cvs-request@perl.apache.org with subscribe in the body.
