CVS, the <a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/cvs/">Concurrent Versions
|
|
|
|
|
System</a>, is used to develop SANE. To get the latest SANE software
|
|
|
|
|
(sane-backends and sane-frontends) our CVS server can be used. But keep
|
|
|
|
|
in mind that the software in CVS is not tested so the risk of bugs is
|
|
|
|
|
much higher than with stable releases.
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
There is development and anonymous CVS access. If you are not a
|
|
|
|
|
developer, please use the anonymous access as mentioned below.
|
|
|
|
|

<h2>Anonymous CVS Access (Read-Only)</h2>

To use <em>anonymous</em>

|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
Replace <em>sane-backends</em> by <em>sane-frontends</em> to get the
|

source code of sane-frontends. For more details on how to use CVS please
|
|

consult the man page <em>cvs(1)</em>.

<h2>Developer Access to CVS (Read-Write)</h2>

|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
If you intend to use the <em>development</em> CVS server, <a
|
2003-09-23 11:12:42 +00:00
|
|
|
href="https://alioth.debian.org/account/register.php" target="_top">get

|
|
|
href="https://alioth.debian.org/projects/sane/" target="_top">contact
|
|
|
|
|
one of the SANE project managers</a> to get added to the project. Don't
|
|
|
|
|
be surprised that you get a "foo-guest" account, that's just the normal
|
|
|
|
|
naming scheme. After being added to the project, it can take some hours
|
|
|
|
|
until you get write access to CVS. Development CVS access is done by ssh
|
|
|
|
|
(version 1):

Besides <em>sane-backends</em> the CVS server also provides other
|
|
|
|
|
modules. To get access to them, just replace <em>sane-backends</em> by one
|
|
|
|
|
of these module names:

|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>

<em>experimental</em>: Experimental code (backends, frontends and tools)

that are not ready for inclusion into the distribution.

<li>
|

<em>html</em>: Our web pages. Before changing anything, be sure you know
|
|
|
|
|
what you do. Ask sane-devel, if in doubt. The HTML pages are
|
|
|
|
|
automatically updated when any change is done in module
|
|
|
|
|
<em>html</em>. Also, the HTML lists of scanners/backends supported by
|
|

the CVS version of SANE is automatically created when changing any .desc

file.

<em>CVSROOT</em>: Contains the scripts that automatically create lists

and update our webpage. You should really know what you are doing. If in
|
|
|
|
|
doubt, ask sane-devel.

Make sure that you <strong>really use ssh</strong> to access the CVS
|
|
|
|
|
server. Have a look at the file <em>CVS/Root</em> in your local
|
|
|
|
|
repository. It should contain a line starting with <em>:ext:</em> and not
|
|
|
|
|
<em>:pserver:</em>. If you don't use ssh, your password is not encrypted
|
|
|
|
|
and CVS log messages won't work. You can use the usual ssh access
|
|
|
|
|
methods. E.g. you can upload your public key so you don't need to enter
|
|
|
|
|
the password every time.

The rules are pretty simple: If you change anything in your backend, do
|
|
|
|
|
whatever you want. Just don't break compilation :-). Don't change
|
|
|
|
|
backends of other active developers. For backends of non-active
|
|
|
|
|
developers or any other code you should either know what you are doing
|
|
|
|
|
or ask on sane-devel if the change is acceptable. Fixing spelling
|
|
|
|
|
mistakes or broken links in the HTML pages is appreciated. Before doing
|
|
|
|
|
major changes please ask on sane-devel.

<p>

|
When doing changes (commits) to sane-backends or sane-frontends, make sure
|
|
|
|
|
you remember to include an entry in the ChangeLog file. The format is
|
|
|
|
|
simple, with the date the change was committed to CVS, the name and email
|
|
|
|
|
address of the one doing the commit, the list of files changed (ignoring
|
|
|
|
|
ChangeLog itself), and a description of the change. Example:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
You can use the same descriptions in the ChangeLog and the commit
|
|
|
|
|
messages. The ChangeLog file is used in addition to the commit messages
|
|
|
|
|
because it's available even when there is no access to the CVS server. If
|
|
|
|
|
you intend to change more than one file in CVS, it's ok to add all the
|
|
|
|
|
entries to the ChangeLog only once per day.
