How to use cvs on e-world.unisa.edu.au
All manipulation of web server files are done via CVS. User checks out htdocs module from CVS repositry and makes changes to checked out copy. When user is happy with the changes, he/she commits the changes into CVS repositry. All commited changes are automaticaly applied to development web site right away. User then browses the development site to review the changes he/she made to ensure that he/she is happy with the changes. When user is happy with the changes he tags those same files as "STABLE". Tagging anything "STABLE" causes that revision to be applied to live web site. Large commits/tags make take a little while to proccess, but usualy this proccess takes 1-2 seconds for 2-3 changed .php files.
Command line examples: cvs -d :pserver:username@e-world.unisa.edu.au:/home/cvsCheckout entire web site: cvs -d :pserver:username@e-world.unisa.edu.au:/home/cvs co htdocs |
