<h3>2. Using CVS on Windows</h3>
|
||||
<blockquote>
|
||||
<p>These instructions are based on notes provided by Mitsuhiro Yoshida <[email protected]>.</p>
|
||||
<p>Firstly, download and install WinCVS.</p>
|
||||
<p>First, you need to download a completely fresh copy of Moodle using your
|
||||
developer account.</p>
|
||||
<blockquote>
|
||||
<p><a href="https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=10072">https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=10072</a></p>
|
||||
<p> 1. Get TortoiseCVS from <a href="http://www.tortoisecvs.org/">tortoisecvs.org</a>
|
||||
and install it, then reboot.<br>
|
||||
<br>
|
||||
2. Find or create a new folder somewhere where you want Moodle to be downloaded
|
||||
to.<br>
|
||||
<br>
|
||||
3. Right-mouse-click that folder and choose "<strong>CVS Checkout</strong>"
|
||||
from the menu. You should see a dialog box.<br>
|
||||
<br>
|
||||
4. Copy this text into the CVSROOT field:</p>
|
||||
<blockquote>
|
||||
<pre> :ext:<font color="#990000">myusername</font>@cvs.moodle.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/moodle</pre>
|
||||
</blockquote>
|
||||
<p><br>
|
||||
5. Press the button: "<strong>Fetch list...</strong>".<br>
|
||||
<br>
|
||||
6. To the right of the button you should see a list of modules: choose
|
||||
"<strong>moodle</strong>" from that list.<br>
|
||||
<br>
|
||||
7. Press the button: "<strong>OK</strong>" and everything should
|
||||
be downloaded.<br>
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
</blockquote>
|
||||
<p>Secondly, download sfsetup for SourceForge ssh access, install it and reboot
|
||||
Windows.</p>
|
||||
<p>A dialog box should show all the files being downloaded, and after a while
|
||||
you should have a complete copy of Moodle. After this first checkout, you
|
||||
can fetch the latest updated files from the CVS server:</p>
|
||||
<blockquote>
|
||||
<p><a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/sfsetup/">http://sourceforge.net/projects/sfsetup/</a></p>
|
||||
<p> 1. Right-mouse-click on your Moodle folder (or any file) and select
|
||||
"<strong>CVS Update</strong>". <br>
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
</blockquote>
|
||||
<p>Next, configure WinCVS. Launch it, and select Admin -> Preferences.
|
||||
Then change them as follows:</p>
|
||||
<p>After modifying files (you will note they change from green top red!),
|
||||
you can commit them back to the CVS server like this:</p>
|
||||
<blockquote>
|
||||
<p> [General]<br>

||||
<strong>CVSROOT data</strong>:<br>
|
||||
<strong>Authentication</strong>: ssh<br>

||||
<strong>Path</strong>: /cvsroot/moodle<br>

||||
<strong>Host address</strong>: cvs.moodle.sourceforge.net<br>

|
||||
<p> 1. Right-mouse-click on your Moodle folder (or any file) and select
|
||||
"<strong>CVS Commit...</strong>".<br>
|
||||
<br>
|
||||
2. In the dialog box, type a clear description of the changes you are
|
||||
committing. <br>
|
||||
<br>
|
||||
3. Click "OK". Your changes will be sent to the server.<br>
|
||||
</p>
|
||||

|
||||
<p>Congratulations, WinCVS is set up. Now, you should check out a complete
|
||||

|
||||

</ol>
