ANNOUNCE: cvsweb browsing of sources and changes in CVS
Hello all,
I looked around for the best way to achieve what Hartmut proposed
(that we would have a way of seeing the latest changes to the repository
with comments), and decided to use a free tool already put to good use b
some famous projects like samba and the bleeding edge linux kernel at vger.
It originates from the FreeBSD project, and it's called cvsweb. I have
no idea why I didn't install it before, as it took about 10 minutes total
to download, install and configure. But it's there now. You can:
* Browse the sources in the developer CVS repository like they are at
this very instant. No need to have some cronjob delayed by a day like
on our website.
* Have a quick view of the changes done to the files.
* Select to view a file, and view the log comments, make diffs between
versions, and do a side-by-side comparison of the current source against
an earlier one of your choice.
In short: it rocks! Have fun with it, and I hope it'll help you.
It is available at http://cvs.ggi-project.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi
I'll put more services at http://cvs.ggi-project.org (actually
degas.ggi-project.org) when they are needed; like generated
binaries and tinderbox (not sandbox, oh well ;)
Chris, if you hear us, please link that from our website.
I have kept the notices and links to the cvsweb distribution point
on our banner, it's the least I could do in order to thanks its
author, Bill Fenner.
