Introduction to CVS
CVS is the Concurrent Versions System. This is a version control system useful for projects using a central repository to hold files and then track all changes made to those files. These instructions install the client used to manipulate the repository, creation of a repository is covered at Running a CVS Server.
Dependencies
Optional
Non-Multilib
By default CVS is statically linked against the Zlib library included in its source tree. This makes it exposed to possible security vulnerabilities in that library. If you want to modify CVS to use the system shared Zlib library, apply the following patch:
patch -Np1 -i ../cvs-1.11.23-zlib-1.patch
Install CVS by running the following commands:
./configure --prefix=/usr && make
Now, as the root user:
make install && install -v -m755 -d /usr/share/doc/cvs-1.11.23 && install -v -m644 FAQ README /usr/share/doc/cvs-1.11.23 && install -v -m644 doc/*.pdf /usr/share/doc/cvs-1.11.23
Multilib
This package does not provide any libraries so only one installation is needed.
