Thread: anon cvs and specific versions/releases
Hi, is there a way to get a specific release out of the repository? Say I want to get 6.3.2 from the repository, or 6.2, how would I proceed?

You'll want to check the man pages for most of the details, but
look up the use of 'cvs log' to determine what tags are available, and
'cvs checkout -D' to specify a *date* that you want to pull from, or 'cvs
checkout -r' to specify a 'tag'

You can use -d, or there is probably a tag for those releases. -- Bruce Momjian | 830 Blythe Avenue maillist@candle.pha.pa.us | Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania 19026 + If your life is a hard drive, | (610) 353-9879(w) + Christ can be your backup. | (610) 853-3000(h)
btw, should I be hacking on the latest CVS snapshot?

Originally my SSL patch was for users of 6.3.2. But now that I'm doing some communication cleanup...
