Browsing The CVS Server

You may browse the repository at http://brebiou.cshl.edu/viewcvs/wormbase-site.

Anonymous CVS Server

The WormBase source code is freely available via anonymous CVS.

To checkout the most recent version of the WormBase software:

1. Set your CVS environment variable

## For tcsh:
 % setenv CVSROOT :pserver:anonymous@brebiou.cshl.edu:/usr/local/cvs
 
## For bash:
 % export CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous@brebiou.cshl.edu:/usr/local/cvs
 

2. Login to the CVS server

% cvs login
 (Logging in to anonymous@brebiou.cshl.edu)
 ## password is anonymous
 % CVS password:
 

3. Check out the code:

% cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@brebiou.cshl.edu:/usr/local/cvs co wormbase-site

The checkout procedure should only have to be done once. To update the source directories in the future it should be possible just to enter the top level directory and issue the following command:

% cd wormbase-site/
% cvs update
