It is possible to do an anonymous cvs checkout of the development version of ClanLib and some ClanLib games.

$ export CVSROOT=':pserver:anonymous@cvs.clanlib.org:/var/lib/cvs'
$ cvs login
Press Enter on the password prompt
$ cvs -z3 checkout [module] (See further down for available modules to checkout)

To use CVS under Windows, I suggest you download WinCVS from wincvs.org (cvsgui.sourceforge.net).

Setup the WinCVS preferences:

CVSROOT: anonymous@cvs.clanlib.org:/var/lib/cvs
Authentication: '"passwd" file on the cvs server' or 'pserver'

Under the globals tab, uncheck "Checkout read-only", otherwise all files will have the read only attribute set. Very annoying.

To checkout a module, choose Admin->Login in the menu. You only need to do this once. Just press enter when you get the password question. Then go to the "Create->Checkout module" menu and enter a module you want to checkout. In recent WinCVS, this is named "Remote->Checkout module". See below for the list over available modules.

The following projects are currently available for checkout:

  • Libs/ClanLib-0.7
  • Libs/ClanLib-0.6
  • Libs/ClanLib-0.5
  • Libs/ClanLib-0.4
  • Libs/ClanLib-0.2
  • Libs/Hermes-1.3
  • Games/Advent
  • Games/Brutal
  • Games/Clanaconda
  • Games/Demolition Inc.
  • Games/Feudalism
  • Games/Feuerkraft
  • Games/Galaxy
  • Games/Hacker II
  • Games/Kwirk
  • Games/Pacman
  • Games/Pacman-0.3
  • Games/Pacman-0.5
  • Games/Pingus
  • Games/RushHour
  • Games/Triz
  • Games/Trophy
  • Games/Windstille
  • Websites/clanlib.org

Its possible to do complete checkouts of the Libs, Games and Websites modules if you don't want to pick out individual projects.

Please note that a working state of each project cannot be guaranteed when using CVS. These are projects under development, and the stability might change from day to day.
