CVS Repository Account

 

To manage course projects (e.g., to retrieve the code we provide for a project) you will need a special account named the "CVS repository account".  You can find your CVS repository account (and associated password) by accessing grades.cs.umd.edu and selecting "Receive Class Account".  Usually your account has the login id cs132XXX where XXX is a number.

 

In addition to your CVS repository account, you need to know the host computer and the CVS repository base directory.  This semester the host computer will be:

 

linuxlab.csic.umd.edu

 

and the CVS repository base directory will be:

 

/afs/csic.umd.edu/users/nelson/cvs132Fall2006

 

Notice that the Repository Path to use in Eclipse's "Add CVS Repository" dialog form will be:

 

/afs/csic.umd.edu/users/nelson/cvs132Fall2006/cs132XXX

 

where cs132XXX is your CVS repository account.  Don't use cs132XXX as is an invalid account.

 

Please see the instructions provided in "Managing Projects" for further information.
