---+ Packaging a Tool for Release You need these environmental variables set to work with the current CVS setup: <code><div style="border-color: grey; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px; padding:2px;"> export CVSROOT=":ext:local@barricklab.org:/bliss/cvs"<br> export CVS_RSH="ssh" </div></code> Unfortunately, you are prompted for the password at every command with this setup. Update your current version of the sources or commit your current changes to the repository. <code><div style="border-color: grey; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px; padding:2px;"> > cvs commit -m "message" module </div></code> Add a revision tag to the repository. For now, use a vX style. <code><div style="border-color: grey; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px; padding:2px;"> > cvs rtag vX_XX module </div></code> Create an archive for posting on the website. <code><div style="border-color: grey; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px; padding:2px;"> > cd <directory containing module><br> > tar --exclude=.* --exclude=CVS -czvf module_vX.tgz module </div></code> (The exclude statements are necessary to avoid .DS_Store files and the CVS directory.) To Do: Switch over to [[http://subversion.tigris.org/][Subversion]].
