Well, I know a whole lot less about CVS and WinCVS than you do!

Here is what I do...On the main WinCVS menu click the Admin, Command Line option. In the popup dialog box you will enter info from the following post

http://fud.prohost.org/forum/tree.php?th=267&start=0&rid=177&S= ff5bc6a4233250f6b09b807570de2884

The first thing you want to do is select the folder - I think you have to create before hand in Windows Explorer.

Then run the following once and only once...

cvs -z9 -d : pserver:anonymous(at)asuka(dot)prohost(dot)org:/forum2 checkout .

( but I changed -z9 to -z3 and don't forget the period AND there is no space between the first : and pserver )

This puts a full copy on your local hard drive. At this point the copy your local hard drive should agree with the real version on your webserver. If not, upload the copy on your local hard drive to your webserver. ( Boy, I hate saying that - it's scary to upload files over a working version - I have backed up the webserver version just in case )

Once the FUD team starts making changes you can run

cvs -z9 -d : pserver:anonymous(at)asuka(dot)prohost(dot)org:/forum2 update .

(once again -z9 to -z3 AND there is no space between the first : and pserver )

You will see the updated files in the output window of WinCVS

I just copy those into a text file which I print out. I then use the printout and upload the files on it as appropriate.

The version of CVS on my webserver is not current so I cannot do it there and thus I must resort to WinCVS.

And I have no knowledge of how to, or if I even can, use the

./create_file_list install >> install.php

Maybe the FUD team will have corrections/additions to the above. I sure hope so! Very Happy

I have just looked at the webCVS. Mabye this will allow us to download the files for a praticular update. I din't understand all the options but give me time...Looks like you can download at least one file at a time.

Ya' just hate to make a mistake and write over a good file with the wrong file...

See, toldja' I didn't know much...but willing to learn
