Ruby CVS Repository Guide
2002-01-06
The source code of Ruby is stored in CVS repositories. You can walk them around by CVSweb:
- https://www.ruby-lang.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/
Anonymous CVS is also available:
$ cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.ruby-lang.org:/src login
(Logging in to anonymous@cvs.ruby-lang.org)
CVS password:
$ cvs -z4 -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.ruby-lang.org:/src co ruby
$ cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.ruby-lang.org:/doc login
(Logging in to anonymous@cvs.ruby-lang.org)
CVS password:
$ cvs -z4 -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.ruby-lang.org:/doc co doc
$ cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.ruby-lang.org:/www login
(Logging in to anonymous@cvs.ruby-lang.org)
CVS password:
$ cvs -z4 -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.ruby-lang.org:/www co www
No password is required. Please just press Enter.
In addition, CVSup is also available:
- http://cvs.ruby-lang.org/cvsup/
You’ll find “supfiles” here. With them, you can get a part of or a whole repository by means of CVSup.
That’s all, folks! Happy hacking!
