== How To Set Up CVS for Meeshquest ==
CVS provides you with a backup on a secondary machine, the ability to roll back changes, and a convenient way to work from many machines on the same project. It would be a wise use of your time to set up CVS for this project.
=== Setting up your repository ===
We don't want to use your old grace repository as your malloclab partner has access to that.
# Login to cs420xxx@linuxlab.csic.umd.edu (you can find your id and password on blackboard)
# $ mkdir 420CVS
# $ setenv CVSROOT /afs/csic.umd.edu/class/cmsc420/0101/cs420xxx/420CVS
# $ cd 420CVS
# $ cvs init
# $ chmod o-rwx $CVSROOT
=== Connecting with Eclipse ===
# In the CVS Perspective...
## Host: linuxlab.csic.umd.edu
## Repository Path: /afs/csic.umd.edu/class/cmsc420/0101/cs420xxx/420CVS
## User: cs420xxx
## Password: <your password>
## Connection Type: extssh
## (Check 'Save password' to avoid entering your password each time)
# In the Java Perspective...
## Once you've created your project, right click on the project folder and click "Team->Share Project"
## Use the existing repository location you just created, and use all the defaults provided unless you have some compelling reason not to.
