Note: If you don't know what CVS, cvsup and cvsweb.cgi are then this

text is most likely not interesting for you.

This tool is primarily intended for people tracking the development of
|
|
FreeBSD and other open source projects with a public CVS repository.
|
|
|
|
This package provides three Perl scripts:
|
|
+ commitlog2cvsweb: converts FreeBSD or DragonFlyBSD commitlog files to HTML
|
|
+ cvsrdiff2cvsweb: converts output of "cvs rdiff -s" to HTML
|
|
+ cvsuplog2cvsweb: converts log output of "cvsup" to HTML
|
|
|
|
They basically transform their input to HTML, adding hyperlinks to a
|
|
cvsweb URL (cf. port devel/cvsweb) for each changed file. You can
|
|
browse a log of file changes and click on anything of interest to see
|
|
the details of the change.
|
|
In order to use this tool you need:
|
|
1. access to a CVS repository of interest to you (either by
|
|
local/remote cvs or by cvsup)
|
|
2. WWW access to the repository with the cvsweb CGI.
|
|
To use commitlog2cvsweb you have to track the cvsroot-common and
|
|
cvsroot-src part of the FreeBSD CVS repository with cvsup. This
|
|
requires some 27 megabytes disk space for the commit logs.
